Verse 1

When I was a boy

I didn't care about a thing

It was me and this world

And a broken dream

I was blaming myself

For all that was going

wrong (going wrong)

I was way out there

On the wrong side of town

And the one's that I loved

I started pushing them out

Then I realized

That it was all my fault

Chorus 1

I've been looking for a lifeline

For what seems like a lifetime

I'm drowning in the pain

Breaking down again

Looking for a lifeline

Verse 2

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

(Repeat Chorus 1)

Chorus 2

Is there anybody out there

Can you pull me from this

ocean of despair

I'm drowning in the pain

Breaking down again

Looking for a lifeline

Bridge

You know a heart of gold

Won't take you all the way

And in a world so cold

It's hard to keep the faith

I'm never gonna fade away

Interlude

Chorus 3

Is there anybody out there

Can you pull me from this

ocean of despair

I'm drowning in the pain

Breaking down again

Looking for a lifeline
