Step 1, you say you need to talk
I know what's coming but I choose to play along
I smile politely right at you
And I hope that you just can't see through

I'm gonna say what you want to hear
Say I'm alright as I hide my tears
To see the fear leave from your face
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

Where did life go wrong, I feel the end
Sleeping along in the bitterness
I'm wide awake the darkness is by light
I don't know how to save this life

I let you think that you know best
'Cause after all you do know best
Slowly let down me defence
Just to feed you confidence

Lay down a list of what is wrong
You're careful not to come on strong
If only God could hear you
Please God I really need you

Where did life go wrong, I feel the end
Sleeping along in the bitterness
I'm wide awake the darkness is by light
I don't know how to save this life

Now I can start to hear your voice
I know I'm left with one of little choice
Drive until I lose the road
Or break with the ones I followed

'Cause they'll do one of two thing
They'll stick around through everything
Or they'll say it's too much to take
And I'll begin to wonder why I came

Where did life go wrong, I feel the end
Sleeping along in the bitterness
I'm wide awake the darkness is by light
I don't know how to save this life

Where did I go wrong, I feel the end
Sleeping along in the bitterness
I'm wide awake the darkness is by light
I don't know how to save this life
How to save this life
