There was snow on the highway
When I lost myself
To the ghost of Christmas day
She had tears
In her eyes
When she knew
She could not disguise
What could you want from me?
I am just the angel of prescriptions
Addicted to a fear unfeathered
But I just need you to know
My friend
Dear Alyssa
You're stronger than this world
Dear Alyssa
You're stronger than this world
You ask me for the path to God
I never found it for myself
I could show you a rusty guitar
And some dusty chords
No one sings anymore
You ask me which way is right
Here where the streets never end
I can't give you a sense of direction
Just of wasted time
And airport waiting lines
But
Dear Alyssa
You're stronger than this world
Dear Alyssa
You're stronger than this world
I wish I could save you
From this life
I need you to know
All the shadows we make
Are shattering the dawn
Dear Alyssa
You're stronger than this world
Dear my friends
You're stronger than this world
Oh yeah
You're stronger than
Stronger than
