I WAS THINKING OF IT ALL

THE TIMES I'VE BEEN THROUGH

WHY DIDN'T I FALL?

I WAS BELIEVING IT WAS MY LUCK

DISBELIEVING IN WHAT I COULDN'T TOUCH

(CHORUS)

WAS I LOOKING FOR THE ANSWERS

SO I CAN SAVE THE TRUTH?

NOT TRYING TO GET WISE

SO I CAN GET OVER ON A FOOL

TAKE ME AWAY!

I'VE BEEN AROUND

AND I'VE SEEN ENOUGH

THE POOREST OF THE POOR

THE WEAK AND THE TOUGH

THEY SAY NOT TO QUESTION

BUT I GOTTA ASK WHY

I CAN STILL REMEMBER

THE LAST TIME I CRIED

(CHORUS)

CAN YOU TAKE ME AWAY?

I SAW ALL THE GOOD

GET CAUGHT IN A RAGE

IT LEFT ME DOWN-I'M DOWN

IT LEFT ME DOWN AND CONFUSED

I FACED ODDS SO STRONG

THAT I USED BOTH FISTS

NOW I'M ASKING

CAN YOU HELP ME?

CAN YOU HELP ME STAY CLEAN?-HELP ME

BECAUSE WHAT'S MY PROTECTION

IF I GIVE UP MY FISTS?

WHEN IT HURTS

WILL YOU EASE THE PAIN?

WHY AM I UNDER OBSERVATION?

I THOUGHT YOUR LOVE WAS FOR FREE
