Shelter - Ten Foot Pole

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

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 fucked up things

We both know about you

Embrace the honesty

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?
