I am a constant
I am, oh, so confident and ever so stable
Though always at the brink of collapse
I can rely on despair
On the wrong signs
A lack of compassion
I need to see this
And you, to see this
I am longing for the end
I need holes and cracks in this hull that was built 'round me
And many more who mean well
But all fail and destroy more of themselves every day
I lost track of this
Though I didn't move at all
I need a constant
Oh, I need a confidant
Can you please build me up
To save me from the brink of collapse
Can you cleanse me from my fears,
Everyday's gloom
And my own thoughts
I need to see this
And you, to see this
This is over when we confess to ourselves
And wear it on our sleeves
Hold it high over our heads
Hold it high for all to see
Reach inside the darkness
