Lyrics

[00:16] you're alone
[00:21] you're afloat in an angry tide
[00:26] does it feel like home?
[00:31] or does it feel like suicide?
[00:38] you're so sharp
[00:42] that you cut yourself sometimes
[00:48] and your devices go to waste,
[00:53] because they're running around with your design.
[01:00] you feel as useless as a paper umbrella in a storm,
[01:08] it's funny how the weather can go wrong.
[01:14] and you're without your outer shell,
[01:19] I just want to know if I can help,
[01:25] or can anything be done?
[01:30] your head's so heavy,
[01:35] let's get the weight from off of your chest.
[01:42] come on baby,
[01:46] don't fear the people you know best
[01:52] you're a soldier now,
[01:58] and you're going off to war,
[02:02] what are you crying for?
[02:15] you feel as useless as a paper umbrella in a storm,
[02:22] it's funny how the weather can go wrong.
[02:28] and you're without your outer shell,
[02:33] and I just want to know if I can help, baby,
[02:41] I just want to know if I can help.
[02:47] I would do for you
[02:51] whatever could be done.
[02:57] oh, all I can do is look at you retreating to the skies.
[03:09] oh, nothing grounds you now,
[03:13] you haven't got the anchor off your alibi.
[03:20] all I can say is
[03:24] suns will set and rise again and I will do for you
[03:34] whatever can be done.
[03:39] your head's so heavy,
[03:43] let's get the weight from off of your chest.
[03:49] come on, baby,
[03:54] don't fear the people you love best.
