lyrics

Lately I've been down and I've been reeling and nothing's giving me the bite
Turn the faucet on - echoes of a song, but nothing's coming out tonight
I've tried everything from the ceiling to the ground
My hands are black with coal but a diamond won't be found
Do my best to pry the rain down from the sky but the ground is good and dry tonight

I confess I'm a mess, but honey you know that you know me best
I confess I'm a mess, but honey
I confess I'm a mess, but honey you know, you know

I don't know if I can ever be all the things that you see, things that you see in me
I don't know if I can be all the things that you see, things that you see

I've been dying for that something that makes me feel alive
But coming up with nothing no matter how I try
Can I take another zero and still give an ounce of fight
Make a comeback, be the hero
Nothing's coming out tonight

I don't know if I can ever be all the things that you see, things that you see in me
I don't know if I can be all the things that you see, things that you see

Cuz I'm feeling down, down, down . . .
Forgive me my dear but I just need to hear what's written all over your face
A hundred times for the broken up lines
Putting me back into place

I don't know if I can ever be all the things that you see, things that you see in me
I don't know if I can be all the things that you see, things that you see
