I've been wandering through life
They say you'll make it if you try
So I try
But I've been wandering so long
And still I wander on and on and on and
(chorus)
I unravel like a ball of yarn caught between the cat's paws
Bits and pieces scatter all around the room
I twist and tangle till I tie up all the furniture and
I'm left an empty spool
When you're there, when I'm falling apart
When I am dry and beaten down
You're all that you are
"˜Cause you are there when I'm so far gone
You are strong for me when I'm not
When I'm not
My hope fell in the sand
And the waves washed it away (washed it away)
I do my best to fake a laugh
To put a smile upon display (upon display)
[repeat chorus x2]
