As I Lie Here Bleeding

I place my foot on the first step
That leads me down into my fate
So father please forgive me
As I cannot see it end

I am now up on the table
It trembles under my weight
I wipe away the cold sweat
Close my eyes and

Falling out of what I know is true
Falling come shelter me as I, as I lie here bleeding
Falling away from what I thought was you
Falling come shelter me as I, as I lie here bleeding

So speak and I listen
I'll take the time to hear you out
So scream and I sure listen
I just need a little time

Gathering the pieces of a stronger me
Helpless weak and battered
My wounds are bleeding

Falling out of what I know is true
Falling come shelter me as I, as I lie here bleeding
Falling away from what I thought was you
Falling come shelter me as I, as I lie here bleeding

Gathering the pieces of a stronger me
Helpless weak and battered
My wounds are bleeding

Falling out of what I know is true
Falling come shelter me as I, as I lie here bleeding
Falling away from what I thought was you
Falling come shelter me as I, as I lie here bleeding
