Trembling Hands

The Temper Trap · The Temper Trap [2012]

Treading the ground

I once used to know

People are strangers

The same as before

The streets look familiar

I remember the park

Where I buried my head

So deep in my hands

All around me was dark



This here city

Is for the lonely ones

You won't find no angels

Selling maps to the lost

This here place

Is too small for two

It took one to realise

When dreaming's this hard

It's not meant to come true



So throw me a line

Somebody out there help me

I'm on my own

I'm on my own

Throw me a line

I'm afraid that I have come here

To win you again

With trembling hands



Passing the days

Looking over the buildings

Time seemed to stop

While the millions keep moving

Now here I am

I'm a drop in your ocean

A noise in the crowd

Pushing through your halls of reason



So throw me a line

Somebody out there help me

I'm on my own

I'm on my own

Throw me a line

I'm afraid that I have come here

To win you again

With trembling hands



Hear me now make me whole

Whole

Hear me now make me whole

Whole



So throw me a line

Somebody out there help me

I'm on my own

I'm on my own

Throw me a line

I'm afraid that I have come here

To win you again

With trembling hands



There goes the ending

It left me in want

But I've tried everything dear

I am done with my part
