When I was young
I always got the job done
My mama said I'm on my own now
When I need help
I tell myself I got this
But it's too much to carry on alone
If you ask, you shall receive
Not easy as it seems 'specially for me
If only I could kiss the down goodbye
Wouldn't it be nice
To call a friend
To help me bear the low
I've carried on my own
Someone to hold my hand
Lead me through the storm
Save me when I'm underwater
I've been let down
Soaking in dissapointments
The ones I thought I'd count on let me drown
I've given up
I couldn't find a lifeline
No trace of light to guide me back to shore
But oh how life can be
The ones I never dreamed came to rescue me
It showed me that grace and empathy are given and received
So if you just
Call a friend
To help you bear the low
You've carried on my own
Someone to hold your hand
Lead you through the storm
Save me when you're underwater
So if you find a friend
To help you bear the low
You've carried on my own
Then you should hold their hand
Lead them through the storm
Save them when they're underwater
