Lifeline

10:45

The seconds pass

It rolls along in silence

You hurt the one you love

Now you must pay the price

When it's over and all is said and done

You'll be stronger if you can hold on

'Til the next time around

You'll find a lifeline

You'll need a lifeline

For the heart to survive

Careless hope never ends the lie

You knock and no one answers

So you stop the story dead

And you cast the deal aside

When you reach out and you find there's no escape

You try turning,

But you can't run away

You need more than a friend

You need a lifeline

You gotta find a lifeline

For the heart to survive

Off in a thousand directions

With no clear end in sight

You look for a sign

It's a desperate connection

And there's no way you can fight

You're going out of your mind

There's no help this time

When it's over and all is said and done

You'll be stronger if you can hold on

'Til the next time around

You'll find a lifeline

You need a lifeline

To get through the hard times

You gotta find a lifeline

And the heart will survive.
