He lies awake from fireworks that breaks His focus from his dizzy brain Remembering the wrongs he's made Clock strikes three, he repeats, bottoms up once again He won't live with regrets so he drinks Like it's soda with ice, stumbling 'round in a mist And ignoring the signs
I'm here, on my own
CHORUS Stay with me and take my hand I'll take you anywhere, give you anything Please believe again
Locked up in chains Stuck in a world of hate The ones he could rely on Has left him and moved along
Still alive, still alive, I am on my own In a fire, in a fire, down I go
CHORUS Stay with me and take my hand I'll take you anywhere, give you anything Please believe again Don't let me be, you're all I have I need to be whole again, 'cause my soul's a mess Please don't leave, my friends
How can I stay sober When I've crossed this border? There's nowhere to hide and nowhere to turn Where is your patience? Where have you gone? The bottle's my friend and has been for too long I guess I'll never learn
