Shelter Me Lyrics by The Waifs

Shelter Me

0

I decided no one's knowing
Anything about where I'm going
I can't even talk to my friends
Anymore
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
And 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
And all the pain that I've cause you to feel
When I hurt myself it hurts you more
And that's what hurts me most of all
We shouldn't go on hurting anymore
Keep me safe from myself
I can't do it without your help
Your love's the finest thing I've ever known
I want to come home
Oh I want to come home X 4
Keep me safe from myself
I can't do it without your help
Your love's the finest thing I've ever known
So take me now and shelter me
For there's nothing left of me
