Waking up in filthy lounge rooms
Learn by going where we have to go
As we slowly sink below
Try forget those well-known faces
Wake to sleep, and take my waking slow
I make everyone my foe
Take my hand and show me a better way
I never played that well with others in the first place
I'm not the man I should be
And who I was is just a memory
Take my hand before I fall again
So meet me at the stairs at Fed Square
We'll spike our coffee and we'll laugh at what they say
You make everything okay
And then you ask me if I'm scared of dying
As you squeeze my hand and pass the spliff my way
I say something I wouldn't normally say
Take my hand and show me a better way
I never played that well with others in the first place
I'm not the man I should be
And who I was is just a memory
Take my hand before I fall again
And all these weekends blur together
All we wanted was a chance to be set free and be all that we could be
I really wish that you could stay forever
I feel the fire in the dirt under our feet
We could do this, you and me
Take my hand and show me a better way
I'm just a boy trapped in a man who's lost his way
And nothing seems worthwhile
Nothing makes me smile
Take my hand before I fall again
