Lyrics for Lifeline

I'm running out of time this time This time I can't be late I've got to find my destiny Before it turns to fate I feel so insecure, I feel so all alone I need something, some possession of my own I reach for what I want I see it in my sleep It's hard to get a hold of it And it's twice as hard to keep I feel so insecure, I feel so all alone Well, I need something, some possession of my own Someone help me, lifeline Someone help me, lifeline Someone help me, lifeline Someone help me, lifeline I grab the rope in front of me It keeps slipping from my hands I try to climb with all of my strength But it trickles through like sand This feeling's too secure, it's like a ball and chain Yeah, I know there's something dragging in my brain Now another rope appears I've got it snug and tight This is one that I can't let go of No matter how I fight This feeling's too secure, it's like a ball and chain Yeah, I know there's something dragging in my brain Someone help me, lifeline Someone help me, lifeline Someone help me, lifeline Someone help me, lifeline Lifeline, lifeline, lifeline, lifeline Lifeline, lifeline, lifeline
