Sinking
while the water rises
in a stream
helpless
as my indecision's
drowning me
tripping
over things that i should
clearly see
speechless
when a word would save me
it's words i fear
if i falter
would you help me make it right
if i run for shelter
will you hold me for the night
if i trust you
will it help me see the light
i've lived my life alone
i've learned my lesson
reaching
out to no one who can
give me help
feeling
for the candle as i
burn myself
if i falter
would you help me make it right
if i run for shelter
will you hold me for the night
if i trust you
will it help me see the light
i've lived my life alone
i've learned my lesson
i've learned my lesson
stop and overcompensate
for all the times
that you've been afraid
the world's become a conversation
close the door
somebody just might hear you
never break the silence
never break the law
never let them in
it seems so complicated
it's not all us & them
if i falter
would you help me make it right
if i run for shelter
will you hold me for the night
if i trust you
will it help me see the light
i've lived my life alone
i've lived my life alone
if i falter
would you help me make it right
if i run for shelter
will you hold me for the night
if i love you
will it help me see the light
i've lived my life alone
