From the recording Beast
Lyrics
This beat on the drum is the beat of my heart
Pushing forth strongly and marching on, and it’s all because of you
Throughout time and time again you were there for me when I was down
You never asked the best of me, you always took what was left of me
And you raised it up, got my torn down and mangled body back together
Nothing I could do in this whole world could repay, I’m in debt
And you would never ask of me to compensate for all the times
I know this song’s a bit long overdue, but I’ve gotta say
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you for being there, for being there for me
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you for being there, for being there for me
Oh when trouble’s at my door
You are there to help me through
And when I’ve fallen and I can’t get up
You are there to lift me higher
Thank you, oh thank you
Thank you for being there, for being there for me
I can remember all of the fights, the broken glass and shattered hearts
The fights between our egos, though really we know you were there to save me
From the rocky path my feet were stumbling on so recklessly
The only thing you cared about was me, and I couldn’t see
There must have been a day or seven hundred where you cursed the stars
For staying board this ship I sailed through frozen hell and tidal wave
But something kept you by my side, kept my stubborn hide alive
And after everything I’ve put you through, I’ve gotta say
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you for being there, for being there for me
Ah, thank you
Thank you
Thank you for being there, for being there for me 
Oh when trouble’s at my door
You are there to help me through
Oh, when I’ve fallen and I can’t get up
You are there to lift me higher
Thank you, oh thank you
Thank you for being there, for being there for me
Oh, I fear
I fear the day you’ll leave me
When you’ve finally given up
On my hopeless heart
Yeah
But everyday after the next
You’re still here by my side
Oh, I don’t deserve you,
Oh, I don’t deserve you
Oh, thank you
Thank you
Thank you for being there, for being there for me
Ah, thank you
Thank you
Thank you for being there, for being there for me
Oh when trouble’s at my door
You are there to help me through
Oh, when I’ve fallen and I can’t get up
You are there to lift me higher
Thank you, oh thank you
Thank you for being there, for being there for me
