Times before I walked through the valley Below the sun I've wandered endlessly and waited for My time to come I think I'm drowning Can someone lend a hand? Can someone save me? 'Cause I don't think I can I've gone too far to turn around It's hard to reach for you When I'm lying face down I can't relieve my soul I'm lost in a moment Lying face down Returning home I find myself Wishing I was already gone But how long does it take to find me Well I'm waiting for someone I think I'm drowning Can someone lend a hand? Can someone save me? 'Cause I don't think I can I've gone too far to turn around It's hard to reach for you When I'm lying face down I can't relieve my soul I'm lost in a moment Lying face down I've gone too far to turn around It's hard to reach for you When I'm lying face down I can't relieve my soul I'm lost in a moment Lying, Lying I've gone too far to turn around I've gone too far to turn around In a moment, lying face down
