Ten Foot Pole - Shelter Lyrics

If I lose all respect for you
Can I still call you friend?
Why expose myself to disappointment
Over and over again?
The cycle has to end

[Chorus]
Can someone give me shelter
From the pouring rain?
If the water washed your lies away,
Maybe I could trust you again
If anything remained

I'm tired of masking anger,
With humor and diplomacy,
I want to scream out all the f*cked up things
We both know about you
Embrace the honesty

[Chorus]

I'm sick of the pain,
Give me one good reason,
To believe that you'll change

I wonder how we got this far,
After all these years,
I still don't know who you are.
Like a dream I've fallen down,
I need to wake up,
before I hit the ground

If the water washed you away,
Could I be myself again?
If the water washed you away,
Could I be myself again?
If the water washed you away,
Could I be myself again?
