Lifted

Oh, still waters
Cool and sweet
Cover me over
Protect me
There's a river
Deep inside
Blood and fever
Amplified
I can drift away
I can slip away from this place

In this head of mine
I can't help what goes on
I am fueled and I am fired
And I'm weak and I'm worn
There's a box of stars
Hidden under my bed
That I only take out when I'm desperate

I don't know why
Why I wait so long
I can't seem to speak
But I can hide inside a song

Oh I have fallen down
I need to be lifted
Give me one word
One single sound
And I will be lifted
Lifted up out of this place
Lifted into your grace

Seems the more that I learn
The less that I know
I give blood up on stage
Don't give a damn at home

And I'm running in circles
And I'm standing in place
Begging for a glimmer
Dying for a taste

I don't know
Why it's gone away

Oh I have fallen down
I need to be lifted
I search for your face
Up over the crowd
I need to be lifted
Into your arms I'll ascend
To where I can start again

Oh I, oh I
Need to be lifted
Oh I, oh I
I need
Oh I have fallen down
I need to be lifted
I pray for one word
One single sound
And I will be lifted
Oh I, oh I
Need to be lifted
Give me one word
One single sound
I need to be lifted
Oh I, oh I
Need to be lifted
