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
