hold on a second
i'm coming down
back to that hole I just left
gotta go back
gotta get zack
and all of the rest who got trapped
let me recall
what it was like
with no reason left to go out
sand in my shoes
dust in my hair
drowning myself every night
stop looking for something to blame
there's no reason to feel shame
trust me, there's more to life than this
just take it easy, don't forget
there's no reason for regret
just take my hand, i'll pull you out
gotta go back
because I know
how much I once needed a hand
to draw itself back
snap down on my face
teach me to jump in a maze
technically fair
we're not supposed to know
that you can climb over walls
ways are just ways and
rules are just rules
I'm coming to pull you out
