Lifeline Songtext
von Thomas Dybdahl

These feel like end times
I′m seeing strange signs
We're crossing hard lines
And we ain′t never crossing back
Stuck here in a cycle of nonstop news
Stagger 'round like children who have been abused
Keeping it together with our pills and booze
All history can tell us is we're born to lose

Throw me a lifeline, baby, I′m a desperate man
Got to hold onto each other
Yeah, these are hard times, baby, got to do what we can
One way or the other
I wanna make it with you
I wanna make it with you


There ain′t no new rhymes
There ain't no pickup lines
So let′s have a good time
Everything's been said before
I used to wake up in my clothes, now I wander the street
It′s only in love that I feel complete
You know the love of the desperate always tastes so sweet
Forget about that, baby, I'm just glad we could meet

Throw me a lifeline, baby, I′m a desperate man
Got to hold onto each other
Yeah, these are hard times, baby, got to do what we can
One way or the other

Throw me a lifeline
Throw me a lifeline
Throw me a lifeline
Throw me a lifeline

I used to wake up in my clothes, now I wander the street
Now you know much more about me than I wish you knew
I used to keep my shit together, now I lose all control
Lose all control, I lose all control


Throw me a lifeline, baby, I'm a desperate man
Got to hold onto each other
Yeah, these are hard times, baby, got to do what we can
One way or the other
Throw me a lifeline, baby, I'm a desperate man
Got to hold onto each other
Yeah, these are hard times, baby, got to do what we can
One way or the other
I wanna make it with you
I wanna make it with you
