Cry For Help

The day my mother died

My world turned upside down

For days and nights I cried

Until I was cried out

Fear of abandonment

Leaves me holding on too tight

I'm asking you to stay the night

I've been lonely for so long

Living life in solitude

Too proud for reaching out

That changed when I met you

When I look into your eyes

I see the possibility

Of starting over, you and me

I was always running

Running from myself

Kept the world at a distance

So no one could figure out

I was too proud to cry for help

Here's my cry for help

Have you ever felt as if

You never quite fit in

Drifted in and out of life

Trying to find yourself as if

You were an actor on the stage

Always playing someone else

I love you most when you're just yourself

I was always running

Running from myself

Kept the world at a distance

So no one could figure out

I was too proud to cry for help

Here's my cry for help

When I'm with you, it's all so clear

We are where we need to be right now

Right here

I was always running

Running from myself

Kept the world at a distance

So no one could figure out

I was too proud to cry for help

Here's my cry for help

The day my mother died

My world turned upside down
