Now as I near defeat I've got to let this be I couldn't see that light you said you saw in me Like a child so young, unaware of what's going on Unable to grasp where I belong These times I spent asking, "Where did I go wrong?" Here I stand, helpless again. Caught up in words I wished I said. I gave up, you're giving in I'll never get back what I once had then I gave up. I'm giving in I'll resent all of the things That drag me down Will next time be more lucid? More lucid than now? Please help me out somehow Don't drag me down Please help me out somehow More lucid than now All they gave me, was a second hand (second hand) Writing letters of things I can't comprehend Here I stand Helpless again
