I'm With You

Thought I'd explain my day...
I'm With You - Avril Lavigne

I'm standing on a bridge
I'm waiting in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
There's nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but there's no sound

And this is how I felt last night when I went to bed.
Isn't anyone tryin’ to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you

I told God I just wanted one good day. One good day, where I had enough sleep the night before. One good day, where I was on time for work. One good day, where things actually went well for once in my life.
I'm looking for a place
Searching for a face
Is anybody here I know
'Cause nothing's going right
And everything’s a mess
And no one likes to be alone

And this is how I felt today. Nothing was going right. Everything was messed up. And I'm always alone.
Isn't anyone trying to find me?
Won't somebody come take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you

Sometimes I feel incredibly lost. It's like I can't find anyone when I need them, and nobody's looking for me anyhow, so what does it matter, anyhow?
Oh why is everything so confusing
Maybe I'm just out of my mind
Yeah yeah yeah...

I've been out of my mind for a really long time... trust me on that one.
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Won't you take me by the hand
take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you

Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you

Take me by the hand
Take me somewhere new
I don't know who you are
But I... I'm with you
I'm with you
I'm with you...



And today, I wrote:

I will break this time
And nothing will mend me
Too many cracks, invisible to the naked eye
But I feel them quivering
And I will shatter.
