lyrics

You threw me that lifeline
But all I can remember
Are all of my mistakes
With these words of love
With these hands of hate
All I can think of is what can I create
Something special for the lovers
Something angry for the hateful
Anything but this handful
Of empty promises
And broken tokens of
All my failures to come
And they will come
With the rising tide
With the setting sun
They come
And I must choose
What am I to do
With all this pain
All on my own
Alone
You gave me so much time
But for all my attempts to take
I left everything to waste
I spoke hateful words
In love my hands I worked
And I
Slipped away
I let my crisis spin me
In a mighty whirlwind down
Down
Down
And I
Was stripped of all I held dear
And now
I am a beggar for your ear
To hear my cry
All I wish
Is to be
What we knew I could always be
Someone to love you and hold you near
Someone to shut out all the fear
To keep that light lit and burning brightly
To fill your desires and keep the nightmares at bay
Out of sight and out mind
All I need is a little more time
Just a little more
Give me a little bit more
Time
Time
Take me back
Please bring me home
For all that I still lack
Please just bring me home
