Hold You Up

I look for hope when I don't need it
I look for love when it's not there
I look for faces I don't recognise
The thirst to know and the pain in their eyes

I look for sin when I have dealt it
I look for signs that I'm alive
I give advice to those who don't need it
End up believing my own lies

There is no use in crying
All your demons babe
They were lying
The world is big
It is not small
There are people who don't care which way you fall
But I will hold you up
With the patience of a tree
Coz you are somebody to me

Look to my mother when I'm worried
Look to my father when I'm sad
Look to my sister when I'm troubled
Look to my friends when I've been bad
Look to my brother when I'm uninspired
I look to wine when my heart breaks
Look to the earth when I'm unhappy
Think of the people heaven takes

There is no use in crying
All your demons babe
They were lying
The world is big
It is not small
There are people who don't care which way you fall
But I will hold you up
With patience of a tree
Cos you are somebody to me
Cos you are somebody to me
