Wrap Me In Your Arms

I've been lost for a while, can you show me hope? I need to fixed, even if I don't want to show I'm broke Find a way to pull me up, right now I'm below the rope Wrap me in your arms and hold me close Never been the type to ask for help, but I need it You ignore my cries for help, because you probably need to see the tears Have I left myself more vulnerable because I revealed all of my secrets? Desperate to make everything right, but I act like I don't care I pretend I'm numb to it all, but I feel more than most I thought I had depression beat, but the plan broke I need you here, but I get scared if you stand close If you're listening, can you deliver a man hope? I miss her, but who doesn't miss someone? I can't even blame her, because love is something I run from I live my nightmares, my dreams seem black Why did she have to die?, I'd give anything to bring Pauline back You were the mother to me that my mother couldn't be Can you give me a sign if you're looking down on me? I'm already wounded, and I know I'm going to get more scars But right now I need some protection, will you wrap me in your arms?
