Lyrics
VERSE I
This is my dilema
It isn't just a question I have
Deeper than the ocean
Steeper than the cliff in my path
And I'm falling into something
I don't understand
This is my dilema, this is my deliverance
This is my obsession, just another consequence
And I'm falling into something
I don't understand

CHORUS
You see I can't be me when I'm around you
Can't quite see what I am to do about it
Can't get free and I'm not getting through
Can't quite see what I am to do about it.
At a loss for words and action
I am merely a distraction to myself

VERSE II
This is my surrender
This my ego come undone
Naked like a newborn
Just another demonstration
And I'm wading into waters
That I cannot swim
This is my surrender, this is my reliquishment
This my last ovation, this my brand new circumstance
And I'm wading into waters
That I cannot swim

CHORUS
You see I can't be me when I'm around you
Can't quite see what I am to do about it
Can't get free and I'm not getting through
Can't quite see what I am to do about it.
At a loss for words and action
I am merely a distraction to myself

Bridge
Mmmm, won't somebody lift me up
Is anybody willing to save me

CHORUS
Can't be me when I'm around you
Can't quite see what I am to do about it
Can't get free and I'm not getting through
Can't quite see what I am to do about it.
repeat x2

This is my dilema
It isn't just a question I have
Deeper than the ocean
Steeper than the cliff in my path
This is my surrender
This my ego come undone
Naked like a newborn
Just another demonstration
Hey

This is my dilema
It isn't just a question I have
Deeper than the ocean
Steeper than the cliff in my path
This is my surrender
This my ego come undone
Naked like a newborn
Just another demonstration
