who am i to make you consider yourself
but how can i watch you walk through hell?

as i held your head up straight
i clenched my fists but not in rage
i've fought so many off
i'm still surrounded

there's so much i meant to say
that depth forced to contain
it's not right
i lied
i never changed
i'm the same person

who am i to make you consider yourself
but how can i watch you walk through hell?

as i drink my problems straight
i've touched your hand
to test for strength
behind one step ahead
i'm nearly drowning

if i dropped to my knees and said
i'd hold you every day
i'd fail myself
do you understand?

goddamn
we've got the same last name right?
you're right in front of me
did you believe
you'd fall that deep from fear?
you say you're down
well try and make it through another night
stay in front of me
it's hard to believe
but i've walked that path before

i'm saying,
forget about last night
