Why can't i love you

How can we escape the silent walls that keep us in
 I can't stand to see you in quiet pain
 And to bear the wounds that cut so deep
 Must our children weep
 So I turn away my soul's restless sleep
 Why can't I love you
 Does it begin with me
 So much to give you
 How can we set it free
 There's a need for you and a need for me
 It's a mirrored truth that's so hard to see
 Through the test of fire, the trials of war
 Can we feel no more
 All the sacrifices, please let us be
 Why can't I love you
 You can depend on me
 Time for the healing
 Through my tears now I can see
 Why can't I love you
 Does it begin with me
 So much to give you
 How can we set it free
 Why can't I love you
 You can depend on me
 Time for the healing
 Through my tears now I can see
