Shelter Me

Well I've decided no one's knowing

Anything 'bout where I'm going

I can't even talk to my friends anymore

I'm not blaming anyone

For the mess I've gotten in

I'm only frightened

By the things that I've done

Keep me safe from myself

I can't do it without your help

Your love's the finest thing

That I've ever known

I want to come home

Thinking back when I was young

You kept me safe from everything

Set me straight when I went wrong

Raised me to respect myself

I can offer no excuse

For this senseless self abuse

All the pain that I've caused you to feel

When I hurt myself, it hurts you more

And that's what hurts me most of all

I shouldn't go on hurting any more

Keep me safe from myself

I can't do it without your help

Your love's the finest thing

That I've ever known

I want to come home

I want to come home

I want to come home

I want to come home

I want to come home

Keep me safe from myself

I can't do it without your help

Your love's the finest thing

That I've ever known

Take me now, a shelter be

Before there's nothing left of me
