lyrics
I could give my heart, lose it all
Leave it behind just to hear your call
But when the weight of doubt is on my mind I can’t erase it
I make pretend like it doesn’t face me
But it keeps me up, yeah it’s driving me crazy
Do I play it safe? Do I keep chasing you for all of my life?
Oh I need a change! Oh I need a sign from you
To get me on my feet, oh pick me up
'Cause every day’s the same, every day’s a chore without you
Pick me up from off of my knees
Pick me up, you’re all that I need (Set me free)
Even if the golden cage is warm and safe
Expectations and the truth are not the same
Should be brave and take a risk, but if I fall, you won’t save me
Here at the bottom it’s a different point of view
Spent all my life just trying to reach you
I took the biggest risk, how do I get myself out of this?
Oh I need a change! Oh I need a sign from you
To get me on my feet, oh pick me up
'Cause every day’s the same, every day’s a chore without you
Pick me up from off of my knees
Pick me up, you’re all that I need (Set me free)
What you wish for, what you cry for
Would you say I’ll never be like this
I will never ever call you my own, are you gone
What you wish for, anywhere you go to I will go there too
I will pray for you
Oh I need a change! Oh I need a sign from you
To get me on my feet, oh pick me up
'Cause every day’s the same, every day’s a chore without you
Pick me up from off of my knees
Pick me up, you’re all that I need (Set me free)
