lyrics

Throw me a lifeline, reel me in,
I've raised the white flag I'm confessing my sins
I'm a little too old but I'm much too young
Guess I gotta keep on running till the race has been run yeah

There's a multitude of things that I don't understand
How the winter turns to spring, how a woman loves a man
That's just some of the shit that's way beyond my control
And it's breeding confusion, it's taking its toll
It's breeding confusion, it's taking its toll

If I fall down will you come to my aid
When I don't have the strength to be strong
I won't call out till I need to be saved,
Just don't make me wait too long
Wait too long

There's a degree of precision, there's an element of skill
That you need to take aim, to move in for the kill
But killing ain't easy, you gotta get it right from the start
And the target keeps moving, it's breaking my heart yeah

I've been a creature of habit since the day I was born
I wish the habits would fade just like the clothes that I've worn
I'm trying to change and I'm trying to learn
But it's hard to stoked the fire without getting burned
It's hard to stoke the fire without getting burned

If I fall down....

Yeah this kind of existence it don't come cheap
But the price of resistance could be the end of me
And I'm hoping the chickens ain't coming home to roost
But what the hell can i do I was the one who cut 'em loose yeah

And I know I'm not perfect, I may have done wrong
I tried looting the wreckage just to get what I want
Now the hour is coming where my karma returns
And I'm begging for mercy I do not deserve
I'm begging for Mercy

I'm surveying the damage, I'm counting up the cost
But the shit I need most is the same shit I've lost
I'm wasting my time, let's finish this now
I won't pull the trigger but I'll show you how
I won't pull the trigger but I'll show you how

I've fallen down will you come to my aid
Cause I don't have the strength to be strong
I'm calling out cause I need to be saved
Just don't make me wait too long

I've fallen down....
Just don't make me wait too long
Wait too long
