When i feel too far away
From where i want to be
There's nothing left for me, yeah
When i feel too close to breathe
Like a baby cutting teeth
In you i find relief

'cause when it's more than i can take
I pushed and pulled to break
A sucker for a saint in your eyes
Criticism comes in waves
Numbering our days
But only you can save me

Is anybody even there
Who doesn't just pretend to care
This time i need to know - are you there?
Does anybody think they can
Begin to even understand
This time i need to know - are you there?

Hang on, hang on
I know, i know

It's the lie that we believe
A truth that we conceive
That lies inside of me
When i leave it all behind
Something hypnotized
The moment that it's mine

Is anybody even there
Who doesn't just pretend to care
This time i need to know - are you there?
Does anybody think they can
Begin to even understand
This time i need to know - are you there?

Is anybody even there?
Who doesn't just pretend to care
This time i need to know - are you there?
Does anybody think they can
Begin to even understand
This time i need to know - are you there?
