"See You Through" lyrics

The hook came in and it got me good
And it pierced my cheek like I hoped it would
How could I fight with a hope so pure
When this might be my mortal cure?
The thunder rolled right in just like they said
The wind just tore the roof right off my head

Now I'm washed up in the shallows
With a question I can't answer
Now I'm runnin' from my shadow
But I don't get any faster
Ooh, it's catching up again
Who doesn't need a friend
To see you through to the end?

No, it ain't God's voice if you don't got proof
So I took my vow, and I followed through
Sirens echoed like a call to prayer
But I couldn't find me anywhere
I did all I could do to drown it out
While all the walls I built came crashing down

Now I'm washed up in the shallows
With a question I can't answer
Now I'm runnin' from my shadow
But I don't get any faster
Ooh, it's catching up again
Who doesn't need a friend
To see you through to the end?

And I don't wanna raise the white flag
I don't wanna take it all back
And throw away the gold
From the land of milk and honey
I wish that I could make it funny
Maybe another day

Now I'm washed up in the shallows
With a question I can't answer
Now I'm runnin' from my shadow
But I don't get any faster
It's catching up again
Who doesn't need a friend
To see you through to the end?

To see you through to the end
To see you through to the end
