Lifeline

When I was a boy

I didn't care about a thing

It was me and this world and a broken dream

I was blaming myself

For all that was going wrong



I was way out there

On the wrong side of town

And the ones that I loved

I started pushing them out

Then I realized

That it was all my fault



I've been looking for a lifeline

For what seems like a lifetime

I'm drowning in the pain

Breaking down again

Looking for a lifeline



So I put out my hand

And I asked for some help

We tore down the walls I built around myself

I was struck by the light

And I fell to the ground



I've been looking for a lifeline

For what seems like a lifetime

I'm drowning in the pain

Breaking down again

Looking for a lifeline



Is there anybody out there?

Can you pull me from this ocean of despair?

I'm drowning in the pain

Breaking down again

Looking for a lifeline



You know a heart of gold

Wont take you all the way

And in a world so cold

Its hard to keep the faith

I'm never gonna fade away!



Yeah!



I've been looking for a lifeline

For what seems like a lifetime

I'm drowning in the pain

Breaking down again

Looking for a lifeline



Is there anybody out there?

Can you pull me from this ocean of despair?

I'm drowning in the pain

Breaking down again

Looking for a lifeline
