Take my hand, we’ll set off on another way Seems you’ve had your druthers for a while I don’t claim to be your hitch out of the mire A runaround pulling wreckage from the fire
I heard you’d landed hard down in Cancun
Swapped out empty vessels for your pain
On that southern trip, you were running out your stay Holding 23 just like that day
I can see that you’re crying out for something Wish it was a something that I hold
Many steps of those flights make up the staircase I’m offering my hand before you go
Feeling like my failing’s why you’re not here
But we all know you made your mind to go
It’s hard to keep perspective, so young and self-reflective Razing peaks down to valleys, hitting low
I can see that you’re crying out for something Wish it was a something that I hold
Many steps of those flights make up the staircase I’m offering my hand before you go
I’m offering my hand before you go I’m offering my hand before you go
