A little sleep, a little slumber A little folding of the hands Left you weak, left you hungry When there's supply you still demand You're beginning to drag the ones you love down Will this phase ever end? A thousand arms to hold you But you won't reach for any hands
Cause I don't feel like I'm getting through to you Let me paint this clear, life is short, my dear See your mother here, her last painful year I wish you only knew She stuck around for you She stuck around for you Maybe you should just fall And leave the world and lose it all And if that's what you need To finally see I'll be with you through it all Bring on the pills, roll the dollar bill Medicating will never heal Relapse, rehab, repeat Always thinking about the me, me, me Self-destruct, spiral down Until your want becomes your need Please get up like I know you can Or forever love the fall
Cause
I don't feel like I'm getting through to you Let me paint this clear, life is short, my dear See your mother here, her last painful year I wish you only knew She stuck around for you She stuck around for you
Maybe you should just fall And leave the world and lose it all And if that's what you need To finally see I'll be with you through it all (I'll be with you through it all)
For you
I can't stand to see you down Strung out, off the wagon and unwound But steady, steady, Oh God, Jenny, Jenny I can't bear to hear the sound Of your body, body hitting the ground [x2]
Oh, Jenny, Jenny, Jenny
(She stuck around for you) She stuck around for you She stuck around for you Maybe you should just fall Leave the world and lose it all If that's what you need To finally see, she loved you through it all [x2]
I'll be with you through it all
