Shawn Molko - Lifeline Lyrics

Nobody answers when I try and knock
Part of me hopes that the door is locked
I think to myself I just gotta walk
Take a breath, use my voice and talk
They all turn their heads and fix their eyes on me
There's just about anyone I'd rather be
I can't even find the one I came to see
Even though he invited me
And there you go
You're not alone
But I can't save myself from heartbreak on my own
You're my lifeline at this party and I need you
Been a lifetime at this party as I weed through
A sea full of people asking how I've been
When all I want to do is hide away and keep them wondering
Lifeline at this party and I need you I need you I need you
My only armour is my drink in hand
I'm filling the silence in the best I can
My reputation doesn't stand a chance
So I think take a swig and dance
My body tells me to just let go
But everything in me wants to take me home
My only safety is who they don't know
He's the guy you're afraid to show
And there you go
You're not alone
But I can't save myself from heartbreak on my own
You're my lifeline at this party and I need you
Been a lifetime at this party as I weed through
A sea full of people asking how I've been
When all I want to do is hide away and keep them wondering
Lifeline at this party and I need you I need you I need you
And though this party's far from done
I hope you never have to run
From the one you always wanted to become
I shot my only rocket flare
So don't forget and leave me there
Send a signal if you truly care
You're my lifeline at this party and I need you
Been a lifetime at this party as I weed through
A sea full of people asking how I've been
When all I want to do is hide away and keep them wondering
I need you tonight
You're my lifeline
You're my lifeline
You're my lifeline for a lifetime
You're my lifeline
You're my lifeline
You're my lifeline for a lifetime
You're my lifeline
You're my lifeline
You're my lifeline for a lifetime
You're my lifeline
You're my lifeline
You're my lifeline
