Lifeline

Lyrics

[Verse 1] These feel like end times I'm seeing strange signs We're crossing hard lines and we ain't never crossing back Stuck here in a cycle of non-stop news Stagger 'round like children who have been abused Keeping it together with our pills and booze All history can tell us is when we're born to lose [Chorus] Throw me a lifeline, baby I'm a desperate man Got to hold on to each other These are hard times, baby Got to do what we can One way or another I want to make it with you I want to make it with you [Verse 2] There ain't no new rhymes There ain't no new pick-up lines So let's have a good time Everything's been said before I used to wake up in my clothes Now I wander the streets And it's only love that I feel complete You know the love of the desperate always tastes so sweet But forget about that, baby I'm just glad we could meet [Chorus] Throw me a lifeline, baby I'm a desperate man Got to hold on to each other These are hard times, baby Got to do what we can One way or another [Post-Chorus] Throw me a lifeline Throw me a lifeline Throw me a lifeline Throw me a lifeline [Bridge] I used to wake up in my clothes, now I wander the streets (Throw me a lifeline) Now you know much more about me than I wish you would know I try to keep my shit together but I lose all control (Throw me a lifeline) But I lose all control, I lose all control [Chorus] Throw me a lifeline, baby I'm a desperate man Got to hold on to each other Yeah, these are hard times, baby Got to do what we can One way or another Throw me a lifeline, baby I'm a desperate man Got to hold on to each other Yeah, these are hard times, baby Got to do what we can One way or another I want to make it with you Hmm, I want to make it with you
