A Single Tear Lyrics by Converge

The Dusk in Us

2017

[Verse 1]
I was so naive and fearful of the substantive
Of the greying days, of carrying endless weight
And what it really meant to truly mean something
To really be someone who could be loved

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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)

[Bridge 1]
As a single teardrop fell
And was swallowed by the sea
You outshined the best there was
Rewrote who I could be
You outshined the best there was
Rewrote who I could be

[Bridge 2]
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

[Bridge 3]
As a single teardrop fell
As a single teardrop fell
As a single teardrop fell
As a single teardrop fell

[Chorus]
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)

[Outro]
A single tear
A single tear
A single tear
A single tear
