I went from dangling by a rope
To sinking, like a stone
I would explain it, but I don't know
How else to say it

I'm sleeping.. half as long
& I'm working.. like a dog
& I'm fading, like a song -
Nobody's singing, but I'm ringing on!

Its cold and I'm tired,
Alone out here on the edge of what I know is wrong
What I know is right
Its human to stumble 

Will I fall, will I fight?
Or into the chasm -
Between what I've been told -
& What I find,
Will it all start to crumble?

So restless even in my own bed
Arrested in my own head
& I'm wrestling what you and I have said
I can't shake it!

So,  I'm sleeping.. half as long
& I'm working.. like a dog
& I'm fading, like a song -
Nobody's singing, but I'm ringing on!

Its cold and I'm tired,
Alone out here on the edge of what I know is wrong
What I know is right
Its human to stumble 

When I'm cold and feeling tired -
& my heart is believing a lie,
would you open up my eyes,
Would you change my mind?
I will look on high -
To the heart of the most kind
Would you be by my side,
When it all starts to crumble?
