And my words will be here when I′m gone As I′m fading away against the wind And the words you left me linger on As I′m failing again now, never to change this
And I′m sympathetic, Never letting on I feel the way I do As I′m falling apart again at the seam
And it seems I′m alone here, hollow again As I′m flailing again against the wind And the scars I am left with swallow again As I′m failing again now, never to change this
And I′m sympathetic, Never letting on I feel the way I do As I′m falling apart again at the seam And I′m sympathetic, Never letting on I feel the way I do As I′m falling apart again at the seam
The same old feelings are taking over And I can′t seem to make them go away And I can′t take all the pressure sober, But I can′t seem to make it go away The same old feelings are taking over And I can′t seem to make them go away And I can′t take all the pressure sober (I can′t make it go away. I can′t make it go away)
And I′m sympathetic, Never letting on I feel the way I do As I′m falling apart again at the seam And I′m sympathetic, Never letting on I feel the way I do As I′m falling apart again at the seam And I′m falling, falling, falling, Falling, falling, falling, falling Apart again at the seam
I know I′m pathetic I knew when she said it A loser a bum′s what she called me when I drove her home There′s no more waiting and sure no more wasting I′ve done all I can But she still wants to be left alone
You got, you got, you got to help me out And I′ll try not to argue No one, no one, no one likes a drop-out Mistakes are hard to undo
Don′t pull me down this is where I belong I think I′m different But I′m the same and I′m wrong Don′t pull me down this is where I belong I think I′m different This is where I belong
I think it′s disgusting believing and trusting If I gave a fuck There would be nothing for me to prove Although it′s amusing, it′s slightly confusing I′ve done all I can But her ego is still hard to move
You got, you got, you got to help me out And I′ll try not to argue No one, no one, no one likes a drop-out Mistakes are hard to undo
Don′t pull me down this is where I belong I think I′m different But I′m the same and I′m wrong Don′t pull me down this is where I belong I think I′m different This is where I belong
Don′t pull me down this is where I belong I think I′m different This is where I belong
Thinking of the words to say, I′d like to think that this was fate. Reference to a song you love, Spell confusion with a ′k′. Like a star without its strings, I′m hanging here on these two wings. For that smile and those eyes...(I′m falling)
If time could stop, how could I make this poetic? When there′s nothing more pathetic to be said...
You bring me out, show me light, I′m sorry if I hide, I′m too afraid to look inside. You carry through, you make me smile. If it were you and me tonight, I would tame the stars and save the brightest one for you, For you...
If you ever had the chance, Would you make your life seem right? Or would you only hold it back, The good times, the hard, and the bad. Whatever you say is alright, Just as long as there′s no doubt. Could you look me in the eyes...(And say hopes died)

You bring me out, show me light, I′m sorry if I hide, I′m too afraid to look inside. You carry through, you make me smile. If it were you and me tonight, I would tame the stars and save the brightest one for you.
Our wish, Each time, Keeps me returning to you, Night after night... Lift me up as high as the clouds that warm the sky, For you and I...

I was afraid you′d hit me if I′d spoken up I was Afraid of your physical strength I was afraid You′d hit me below the belt I was afraid of your Sucker punch I was afraid of your reducing me I was afraid of your alcohol breath I was afraid Of your complete disregard for me I was afraid Of your temper I was afraid of handles being Flown off of I was afraid of holes being punched Into walls I was afraid of your testosterone
I have as much rage as you have I have as much pain as you do I′ve lived as much hell as you have And I′ve kept mine bubbling under for you
You were my best friend You were my lover You were my mentor You were my brother You were my partner You were my teacher You were my very own sympathetic character
I was afraid of verbal daggers I was afraid of the Calm before the storm I was afraid for my own Bones I was afraid of your seduction I was afraid Of your coersion I was afraid of your rejection I was afraid of your initimidation I was afraid of Your punichment I was afraid of your icy silences I was afraid of your volume I was afraid of your Manipulation I was afraid of your explosions
I have as much rage as you have I have as much pain as you do I′ve lived as much hell as you have And I′ve kept mine bubbling under for you
Chorus You were my keeper You were my anchor You were my family You were my saviour And therein lay the issue And therein lay the problem
