You're simply saying everything if you will

Take a pen and write my name on a friend

Who never cared to let me in

And take a vast revine that for

Three years swimmin' straight upstream

And the wind...the wind won't drag me down the end



You live inside my wall and I

I reach back, hit you harder than God falls

Christ, Amen, Amen, Amen

You're such a line to break and I

I'm so scared to make another mistake in the end



But I just wanna be happy again

Until it all falls down

And where does that leave me?

Well, things, things, I've got so many things to say

And with a broken heart, and a straight face

I'm sayin' Brother, help me



It's just a natural phase that I

I go through and then it's taken away

And then BAM! BAM! I'm fixed

Yeah, and I'm in another place to be where I

I can't sleep without the thought of me being so

So damned sick



Take this song, take this song away

Until it all falls down

And where does that leave me?

Well, things, things, I've got so many things to say

And with a broken heart and a straight face



And he says Reach for the girl

Reach for the girl and hold her close

Believe you can shine when you're silver

And I promise you gold; I promise you gold

And whenever you're dark inside

Don't let go; no, don't let go

Remember there's rain and there's candy and Christmasy winter snow

And remember I love you the same

And I'll strangle your pain

And he tells me to sing

So I sing, so I sing

For my brother who keeps me safe

And tells me everything will be OK.
