| I’m tired of all the jagged edges
|
| That cut me every time you fall
|
| And the pieces of your life come down around you
|
| And I’m tired of the worried voices
|
| Crying when they call
|
| Just 'cause I’ll know where to look
|
| When no one’s found you
|
| You’re just sailing right along
|
| That’s what you’re thinking
|
| I’ve been bailing you out so long
|
| You don’t even know you’re sinking
|
| I’m guilty. |
| Guilty either way
|
| Wrong to try to fix you, and wrong to turn away
|
| I’m guilty, guilty either way
|
| I don’t want to be the one to get that call
|
| Some early morning
|
| When they find you dead of more than you can take
|
| I don’t want to be the one
|
| To dry your children’s tears of mourning
|
| And try to find some lie to cover your mistake
|
| If I’m always here to catch you
|
| Then you’re only going to fall again
|
| But if you fall right through the bottom
|
| Then I’m always going to feel the blame
