When theres nowhere else to run
is there room for one more son, one more son
if you can hold on,
if you can hold on,
Hold on
i wanna stand up, i wanna let go
you know, you know - no you dont, you dont
i wanna shine on in the hearts of men
i wanna mean it from the back of my broken hand
another head aches, another heart breaks
im so much older than i can take
and my affection, well it comes and goes
i need direction to perfection, no no no no
Help me out
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out, Yeah
And when there's nowhere else to run
Is there room for one more son
These changes, ain't changing me
The gold-hearted boy I used to be
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
<i>[x10]
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier
I got soul, but I'm not a soldier</i>
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out
You're gonna bring yourself down
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You're gonna bring yourself down
Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down
Over and in, last call for sin
While everyone's lost, the battle is won
With all these things that I've done
All these things that I've done
If you can hold on
If you can hold on
