If I fell from grace would you be there
To help get me on my feet?
Or would you just smile and laugh?
It's worth my soul to see you smile

It took a lifetime to realize
But now I've open eyes
I can see that our Holy Grail
Is something we may never find

Now, I can't say that it'll stay this way
All I know is you are the blade
To help cut through this shroud of hate
That has blinded me far too long

If the ghosts of the past should rise again
Would you close your eyes, and pretend they'd go away?
Or would you welcome them
With open arms, and empty heart?

They rattle the chains that hold you back
And I know it seems you'll never break free
And I'm sure that my words only add to their strength
Just know I'll never mean to make you cry again

If you fall from grace, know that I"ll be there
To help you stand again
And though we may never find our grail
Isn't it the search that matters most?
