Hide in your shell cos the world is out to bleed you for a ride

What will you gain making your life a little longer?

Heaven or Hell, was the journey cold that gave you eyes of steel?

Shelter behind painting your mind and playing joker



Too Frightening to listen to a stranger

Too Beautiful to put your pride in danger

You're waiting for someone to understand you

But you've got demons in your closet

And you're screaming out to stop it

Saying life's begun to cheat you

Friends are out to beat you

Grab on to what you can scramble for



Don't let the tears linger on inside now

Cos it's sure time you gained control

If I can help you, if I can help you

If I can help you, just let me know

Well, let me show you the nearest signpost

To get your heart back and on the road

If I can help you, if I can help you

If I can help you, just let me know. 



All through the night as you lie awake and hold yourself so tight

What do you need, a second-hand movie-star to tend you?

I as a boy, I believed the saying the cure for pain was love

How would it be if you could see the world through my eyes?



Too Frightening – the fire's becoming colder

Too Beautiful – to think you're getting older

You're looking for someone to give an answer

But what you see is just illusion

You're surrounded by confusion

Saying life's begun to cheat you

Friends are out to beat you

Grab on to what you can scramble for



Don't let the tears linger on inside now

Cos it's sure time you gained control

If I can help you, if I can help you

If I can help you, just let me know

Well, let me show you the nearest signpost

To get your heart back and on the road

If I can help you, if I can help you

If I can help you, just let me know. 



I wanna know…

I wanna know you…

Well let me know you

I wanna feel you

I wanna touch you

Please let me near you

Can you hear what I'm sayin'?

Well I'm hopin', I'm dreamin', I'm prayin'

I know what you're thinkin'

See what you're seein'

Never ever let yourself go

Hold yourself down, hold yourself down

Why d'ya hold yourself down?

Why don't you listen, you can

Trust me, 

There's a place I know the way to

A place there is no need to feel you

Feel that you're alone.

Hear me

I know exactly what you're feelin'

Cos all your troubles are within you

Please begin to see that I'm just bleeding to

Love me, love you

Loving is the way to 

Help me, help you

– Why must we be so cool, oh so cool?

Oh, we're such damn fools...
