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?
