Christ! what the hell is happening
My life is in a tail-spin
I need your help to make a stand
I need your strength and helping hand.
I've heard the lies and felt the pain
I've been let down this time again
I cannot change just who I am
I need your strength and helping hand.
So tell me sweet lies
And tell me they're true
I'll believe all you say
If you'll stay with me too...
My life is now a sudden race
I cannot win or keep the pace
The rules keep changing everyday
I don't know which game I have to play.
I'll bare my soul if that will do
I don't care for anyone else but you
I'll believe the lies to keep you near
I'll die inside without you here.
So tell me sweet lies
And tell me they're true
I'll believe all you say
If you'll stay with me too...
