Hide in your shell
'Cause the world is
out to bleed you for
a ride
What will you gain
making your life a
little longer?
Heaven or Hell, was
the journey cold
that gave you eyes
of steel?
Shelter behind
painting your mind
and playing joker
Too frightening to
listen to a stranger
Too beautiful to put
your pride in danger
You're waiting for
someone to
understand you
But you've got
demons in your
closet
And you're screaming
out to stop it
Saying life's begun
to cheat you
Friends are out to
beat you
Grab on to what you
can scramble for
Don't let the tears
linger on inside now
'Cause it's sure
time you gained
control
If I can help you,
if I can help you
If I can help you,
just let me know
Well let me show you
the nearest signpost
To get your heart
back and on the road
If I can help you,
if I can help you
If I can help you,
just let me know
All through the
night
As you lie awake and
hold yourself so
tight
What do you need,
A second hand movie
star to tend you?
I as a boy, I
believed the saying
the cure for pain
was love
How would it be if
you could see the
world through my
eyes?
Too frightening -
the fire's becoming
colder
Too beautiful - to
think you're getting
older
You're looking for
someone to give an
answer
But what you see is
just illusion
You're surrounded by
confusion
Saying life's begun
to cheat you
Friends are out to
beat you
Grab on to what you
can scramble for
Don't let the tears
linger on inside now
Because it's sure
time you gained
control
If I can help you,
if I can help you
If I can help you,
just let me know
I wanna know...
I wanna know you
Well let me know you
I wanna feel you
I wanna touch you
Please let me near
you
Can you hear what
I'm saying?
Well I'm hoping, I'm
dreaming, I'm
praying
I know what you're
thinking, see what
you're seeing
Never ever let
yourself go
Hold yourself down,
hold yourself down
Why'd ya hold
yourself down?
Why don't you
listen, you can
Trust me
There's a place I
know the way to
A place there is no
need to feel you
Feel that you're all
alone
Hear me
I know exactly what
you're feeling
'Cause all your
troubles are within
you
Please begin to see
that I'm just
bleeding to
Love me, love you
Loving is the way to
Help me, help you
Why must we be so
cool, oh so cool?
Oh, we're such damn
fools
