Powerless (Cover) (Remastered)

emotional, ballad, slow, sad, sorrowful, subdued, deep male voice, male vocals

The treatments drain your energy
But still you keep on fighting bravely
I hold your hand through sleepless nights
Pretending that we'll be alright
The clock ticks slower every day
While time is slipping fast away

And I'm standing here
With nothing I can do
Except to watch this disease
Slowly taking you

I'm powerless against this fight
Can't make it better, can't make it right
I'd give anything to take your pain
To see you smile like you did again
My love is all I have to give
While praying for more time to live
But I'm powerless, so powerless
Against this darkness that surrounds us

You talk about the coming spring
The future plans, the little things
But in your eyes I see the truth
The battle that we're bound to lose
Still every morning you wake up
With hope that fills my breaking heart

Sometimes at night I scream and cry
Ask every star up in the sky
Why you? Why us? Why here? Why now?
But silence is all I'm allowed
The anger burns deep in my soul
For things I cannot control

If love could heal
You'd never feel
A moment's pain again
If tears could cure
You would endure
No suffering, my friend
But all I am
Is who I am
Just standing by your side
Watching you fade
Despite my rage
Against this cruel goodbye

White walls and endless corridors Another doctor with news I can't ignore I watch you smile through all the pain While I'm fighting back tears once again Your strength amazes me each day Though I can see you slowly fade away The treatments drain your energy But still you keep on fighting bravely I hold your hand through sleepless nights Pretending that we'll be alright The clock ticks slower every day While time is slipping fast away And I'm standing here With nothing I can do Except to watch this disease Slowly taking you I'm powerless against this fight Can't make it better, can't make it right I'd give anything to take your pain To see you smile like you did again My love is all I have to give While praying for more time to live But I'm powerless, so powerless Against this darkness that surrounds us You talk about the coming spring The future plans, the little things But in your eyes I see the truth The battle that we're bound to lose Still every morning you wake up With hope that fills my breaking heart Sometimes at night I scream and cry Ask every star up in the sky Why you? Why us? Why here? Why now? But silence is all I'm allowed The anger burns deep in my soul For things I cannot control If love could heal You'd never feel A moment's pain again If tears could cure You would endure No suffering, my friend But all I am Is who I am Just standing by your side Watching you fade Despite my rage Against this cruel goodbye I'm powerless against this fight Can't make it better, can't make it right I'd give anything to take your pain To see you smile like you did again My love is all I have to give While praying for more time to live But I'm powerless, so powerless Against this darkness that surrounds us If love could heal You'd never feel A moment's pain again If tears could cure You would endure No suffering, my friend But all I am Is who I am Just standing by your side Watching you fade Despite my rage Against this cruel goodbye I'm powerless against this fight Can't make it better, can't make it right I'd give anything to take your pain To see you smile like you did again My love is all I have to give While praying for more time to live But I'm powerless, so powerless Against this darkness that surrounds us
