Powerless

Please throw me a rope
Just something to hold
Cos I've lost my way
A man overboard
I fell on the sword
Of what I hoped to say

And I knew in that moment I was powerless
And I hid behind my own cowardice

I tangled my tongue
And when it unstrung
It was far too late
A man on the run
With a candy cane gun
And hounds of foul wordplay

And I knew in that moment I was powerless
And I hid behind my own cowardice

Only you can find me there
Cos no one else will know the way

I swallowed my pride
And went for a ride
Over to your place
But on the way there
A truck sent me to space

And I knew in that moment I was powerless
And I hid behind my own cowardice
