The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound If you could only see the beast you've made of me I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free My fingers claw your skin, try to tear my way in I hunt for you with bloodied feet across

You think I'd leave your side, baby You know me better than that You think I'd leave you down when you're down on your knees I wouldn't do that And if only you could see into me I'll tell you when you're right Oh, when you're cold I'll be there Hold you

There's a river in Evening ember glow And you're wishing you could see How far it flows Rolling on to an endless sea You'd be well on your way If you could only set sail. But dreams can drift away And sails can fill with doubt

Your one and only 'Cause I'm not gonna be your one and only Just when I'm the only one around Just when I'm the only one The only one around Kiss me, hold me, touch me, tease me You make love and you not easy If only you could see Could see what you do

You'd see you shine, you shine But if only you could see yourself in my eyes I know you'd never leave me behind But I am lost this time I could have told you ‘bout the long nights How no one loves the birds that don't rise So you can tell the heroes go

If I couldn't love you, I wouldn't be me God only knows where I might be If you hadn't of come into my life I'd be forever wondering why I never found my destiny If I never see your smile again Or never woke to touch your skin The truth would be so plain

They call the lonely one Is it good to have cried? With the longing to hide On your heartaches and fears Is it wise to be cold, to struggle, to hold back with tears If you could only see the girl You'd know that since you're gone The lonely one is me

Back when I was unafraid Just like a thief When the stars look down on me What do they see So take me back When I believed And all the heights That I could reach If only you

A man I'll never be You look up at me And somewhere in your mind you see If only I could find a way I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am And it gets harder every day for me To hide behind this dream you see If I said what's on my mind You'd turn

A man I'll never be You look up at me And somewhere in your mind you see If only I could find a way I'd feel like I'm the man you believe I am And it gets harder every day for me To hide behind this dream you see If I said what's on my mind You'd turn
