Lyrics

Turn To Me

Jannotti / Political Suicide

Can you hear the phone?
Your light?s not on but I know you?re home
Your house is empty
Don?t you know you?re alone?
I tried and I tried but I just can?t reach inside
I wish I could get around
What you?re hiding behind
When your sky gets dark and the walls cave in
When you?ve lost your way
When the blade cuts in and the pain begins
Just another day
But before it brings you to your knees
You can turn to me

You can stay in and hide
You and all the tears you?ve cried
What good are the keys you hold
When you?ve locked me outside?
Alone you remain watching life pass by
The choice is made
Like it or not time is cruel that way

Think it through
We can argue and debate until we?re blue
Or sit in the rain just getting wet
What?s the point here I forget?
Didn?t come here to fight
Just to help you through the night

I?ll ask you again
Will you keep me out or let me in?
I?m ready and waiting so let it begin
