I can't bear to think of what your burdens weigh
I want to lift you up and take your pain away
I'm addicted to my thoughts.
When will you learn?
Nothing will change, until I change the way I think
If you play with fire you will burn,
If I play with fire it will burn
Don’t hold me down, It’s not yours to bear
I’ll carry this baggage, It wouldn't be fair
Behind my mask is truly vile
Hidden pain behind every smile.
Could this be the final straw, the one that breaks your back
Hold my hand, have trust in me, you'll bend before you break
It’s like drowning, I need to be saved
As everyone else can breathe around me
Please just save me
I can no longer keep my head above the waves
My head above the waves
I need you to be my anchor
But I don’t want you to drown
Drowning in the crowds
I've lost my self again
With no strength to climb out
I need you to be my anchor
But I don’t want you to drown
It’s like drowning, I need to be saved
As everyone else can breathe
It’s like drowning, I need to be saved
As everyone else can breathe around me
Please just save me
I can no longer keep my head above the waves
My head about the waves
I’ll drift away, so you don’t have to pay
The price for being near
I’ll sink your pain, I don’t need to explain
The reasons I’m here
Let me drown, just let me drown
I’m past the point of help
We can sink or swim together
I'll never let you go
Never let you go
