♪ Do you wake up in the morning ♪ ♪ And need help to lift your head?♪ ♪ Do you read obituaries and feel jealous of the dead?

♪ ♪ It's like living on a cliffside ♪ ♪ Not knowing when you'll dive ♪ ♪ Do you know, do you know, what it's like to die alive?♪ ♪ When the world that once had color♪ ♪ Fades to white and gray and black♪ ♪ When tomorrow terrifies you♪ ♪ But you'll die if you look back♪ ♪ You dont know ♪ ♪ I know you don't know ♪ ♪ You say that you're hurting, it sure doesn't show♪ ♪ You dont know♪ ♪ It lays me so low ♪ ♪ When you say let go, and I say you don't know ♪ ♪ The sensation that you're screaming ♪ ♪ But you never make a sound ♪ ♪ Or the feeling that you're falling ♪ ♪ But you never hit the ground ♪ ♪ It just keeps on rushing at you ♪ ♪ Day by day by day by day ♪ ♪ You don't know, you don't know, ♪ ♪ What it's like to live that way ♪ ♪ Like a refugee, a fugitive, forever on the run ♪ ♪ If it gets me it will kill me ♪ ♪ But I don't know what I've done ♪ ♪ Can you tell me what it is youre afraid of ♪ ♪ Can you tell me why I'm afraid it's me?

♪ ♪ Can I touch you?

♪ ♪ Weve been fine for so long now♪ ♪ How can something go wrong that I can't see?♪ ♪ 'Cause I'm holding on♪ ♪ And I wont let go ♪ ♪ I just thought you should know ♪ ♪ I am the one who knows you I am the one who cares ♪ ♪ I am the one who's always been there ♪ ♪ I am the one who's helped you ♪ ♪ And if you think that I just don't give a damn ♪ ♪ Then you just don't know who I am ♪
