She moved away when she turned 18 In search of home,
didn't know what that
means She thought she'd find it somewhere on the
big screen She just kept running,
she just kept running
Hollywood wasn't all that she thought City of angels,

She got high enough to think she met God She told him something,

Give me a reason,
give me a sign Cause I'm down and out of my mind
Is there someone out there to throw me down a lifeline?
Send in a prayer into the night Tell me,

I could use a little bit of help from the outside
Paycheck,
living week to week He clocks out just to get no sleep
A nightmare of an American dream They all want something,
they all want something
It's just stress,
so the doctor says His young heart's beating out of his chest
Student loans and medical bills keep coming He says,
give me a reason,
give me a sign
Cause I'm down and out of my mind Is there
someone out there to throw me down a lifeline?
Send in a prayer into the night Tell me,
am I doing this right?
I could use a little bit of help from the outside
Hear me out,
hear me out,

can you hear me?
Hear me out,
hear me out, from the outside, can you hear me?
Help me out, help me out, from the outside
Help me out, help me out,
from the outside
Could you give me a reason, give me a sign?
Cause I'm down and out of my mind
Is there someone out there to throw me down a lifeline?
Send in a prayer into the night Tell me,
am I doing this right?
I could use a little bit of help from the outside
Give anything for my dad's advice I'd
like to think that he's in the sky
I stay up late talking to him sometimes I hope he hears me when I say
