Lifeline

When I was a boy, I didn't care 'bout a thing It was me and this world and a broken dream I was blamin' myself for all that was goin' wrong I was way out there on the wrong side of town And the ones that I loved, I started pushin' 'em out Then I realized that it was all my fault I've been lookin' for a lifeline For what seems like a lifetime I'm drowning in the pain Breaking down again Lookin' for a lifeline 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, then I fell to the ground I've been lookin' for a lifeline For what seems like a lifetime I'm drowning in the pain Breaking down again Lookin' for a lifeline Is there anybody out there? Can you pull me from this ocean of despair? I'm drowning in the pain Breaking down again Lookin' for a lifeline 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 Yeah I've been lookin' for a lifeline (lookin' for a lifeline) For what seems like a lifetime I'm drowning in the pain Breaking down again Lookin' for a lifeline Is there anybody out there? (Anybody out there?) Can you pull me from this ocean of despair? I'm drowning in the pain Breaking down again Lookin' for a lifeline
