Nothing I Can Do
Absent Elk
While you're low down on your knees
I watch it pour down from a dry window seat
I hope you know what I would give
If I punch right through the glass
And dry the last tear from your cheek
Don't look back
Sharpen your sword and attack
Because you're stronger
than numbers and facts
Well the voice you know so well
Has some worrisome news to tell
It's a struggle to take it
It's a mistake, It can't be happening
The call out of reach
I'm just standing here unable to speak
Cause I'm too far away from you
And There's nothing, nothing,
Nothing I can do
I can't be there for you
Nothing I can do
I can't breathe for you
Nothing I can do
Just be there for you
Nothing I can do
We'll see this all through
I've changed my point of view
I see things differently
Know what to value
By putting it off
I Make sure I use my time well
Cause I'm done waiting
I'd rather walk with eyes-closed than in line
Don't look back
Sharpen your sword and attack
Because you're stronger
than numbers and facts
And you're in the hands of the best
I tried the shadows in your chest
I've known it since you fell
You will get better, you will get well
And it may seem far from here
But the road is wide and clear
I'm right behind you if you're scared
And There's nothing, nothing,
Nothing I can do
I can't be there for you
Nothing I can do
I can't breathe for you
Nothing I can do
Just be there for you
Nothing I can do
We'll see this all through
This is not your fault
You'll take us to the top
You're defeated, we have won (?)
