When I was a boy I didnt care bout a thing
It was me and this world and a broken dream
I was blaming myself for all that was going wrong
I was way out there on the wrong side of town
And the ones that I loved I started pushing em out
Then I realized that it was all my fault
Ive been looking for a lifeline
For what seems like a lifetime
Im drowning in the pain, breaking down again
Looking 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 and I fell to the ground
Ive been looking for a lifeline
For what seems like a lifetime
Im drowning in the pain, breaking down again
Looking for a lifeline
Is there anybody out there?
Can you pull me from this ocean of despair?
Im drowning in the pain, breaking down again
Looking for a lifeline
You know a heart of gold wont take you all the way
And in a world so cold its hard to keep the faith
Im never gonna fade away, yeah
Ive been looking for a lifeline
For what seems like a lifetime
Im drowning in the pain, breaking down again
Looking for a lifeline
Is there anybody out there?
Can you pull me from this ocean of despair?
Im drowning in the pain, breaking down again
Looking for a lifeline
