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 and 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 learned my lesson

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
