I am bending, made of steel
And i am stumbling towards something real
How can you forget this feeling
Of standing straight while the world is reeling?

Don't leave me here alone
You're as close as it gets to home

Chorus:
Don't look down...you might fall
Life made monkeys of us all (in our finest year)
Don't wait up...we'll be fine
Somehow we might get it right...in our finest year

I am hopeful, full of doubt
And i am trying to work this whole thing out
So how can you just sit there sleeping
When your world's on fire and your chest is beating?

And i want to think you feel the same

(chorus)

In this moment, while you're breathing, if the tension leaves you needing
Will you be the one who stares are your life just slips away?
Don't leave me here alone
You're as close as it gets to home

I'll be there...if you fall
Love made suckers of us all

(chorus)
