A Single Tear

A Single Tear - Converge

I was so naive and fearful of the substantive

Of the graying days of carrying endless weight

And what it really meant to truly mean something

To really be someone who could be loved

So lost in darkness in and out of selfishness

Hoarding all my dreams was just no way to be

Then you gifted me such a precious thing

A chance to be someone who deserved love

I heard

A single tear

Your cry ring out

A single tear

It showed me what

A single tear

Real strength could be

A single tear

As a single teardrop fell

And was swallowed by the sea

You out shined the best there was

Rewrote who I could be

You out shined the best there was

Rewrote who I could be

When I held you for the first time

I knew I had to survive

When I held you for the first time

I knew I had to survive

As a single teardrop fell

As a single teardrop fell

As a single teardrop fell

As a single teardrop fell

I heard

A single tear

Your cry ring out

A single tear

It showed me what

A single tear

Real strength could be

A single tear

A single tear

A single tear

A single tear

A single tear
