lifeline

when i was a boy
i didnt care bout 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 em out
then i realised
that it was all my fault
ive been looking for a lifeline
for what seems like a lifetime
im 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
ive been looking for a lifeline
for what seems like a lifetime
im 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?
im 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
im never gonna fade away!
yeah!
