Write myself off second place
I just don't get the picture yet
I'm better off alone in silence
We're fashioned in grace
I threw a rock up towards your window
You walked down the hall
I saw your sadness
Reflecting mine
But I just couldn't help myself
You never needed anything
Well I just couldn't let you help
You won't leave (you won't leave)
Here I am again
Left standing [back to the wall]
Well here I am again
Left feeling helpless
I gave up everything the light I chased was darkening again
Spinning circles fade to black
I ripped my heart out just to show you
We're never alone
My gut has done me more than God has
But I just couldn't help myself
You never needed anything
Well I just couldn't let you help
You won't leave (you won't leave)
Here I am again
Left standing [back to the wall]
Well here I am again
Left feeling helpless
(THIS IS WHY YOURE LOST AND LONELY)
But I just couldn't help myself
You never needed anything
Well I just couldn't let you help
You won't leave (you won't leave)
Here I am again
I'm standing [back to the wall]
Well here I am again
Left feeling helpless
