Chalk Farm Lesson Lyrics

Lesson Lyrics

Sinking, while the water rises

In a stream

Helpless, as my indecision's

Drowning me



Tripping, over things that I should

Clearly see

Speechless, when a word would save me

It's words I fear



If I falter, would you help me make it right?

If I run for shelter, will you hold me for the night?

If I trust you, will it help me see the light?

I've lived my life alone, I've learned my lesson



Reaching, out to no one who can

Give me help

Feeling, for the candle

As I burn myself



If I falter, would you help me make it right?

If I run for shelter, will you hold me for the night?

If I trust you, will it help me see the light?

I've lived my life alone, I've learned my lesson



I've learned my lesson



Stop and overcompensate for all the times

That you've been afraid

The world's become a conversation, close the door

Somebody just might hear you



Never break the silence

Never break the law, never let them in

It seems so complicated

It's not all us and them



If I falter, would you help me make it right?

If I run for shelter, will you hold me for the night?

If I trust you, will it help me see the light?

I've lived my life alone, I've learned my lesson



If I falter, would you help me make it right?

If I run for shelter, will you hold me for the night?

If I love you, will it help me see the light?

I've lived my life alone
