This is the place that no one sees
I don't like to show (I can't help it)
This is the darkness over me
It's just the world I know (I can't stand it)
Reachin' for the light
Reachin' from inside
Help me tonight

I'm closer to the edge tonight
I'm standin' on the ledge, so why
Hold you, reach out your hand
To save (to save), to save me tonight
I'm damaged if you dare tonight
It feels like no one cares, so why
Can I come back for air?
Just save (just save), just save me
What are you waitin' for?
Someone save me

Peel back the skin, exposed to you
Take pleasure in the pain (please stop starin')
Tell me what I'm supposed to do
It ain't easy to open up this way (I can't help it)
Reachin' for the light
Reachin' from inside
Help me tonight

I'm closer to the edge tonight
I'm standing on the ledge, so why
Hold you, reach out your hand
To save (to save), to save me tonight
I'm damaged if you dare (tonight)
It feels like no one cares, so why
Can I come back for air?
Just save (just save), just save me

What are you waiting for?
Someone save me

Reachin' for the light
Reachin' from inside
Help me tonight

I'm closer to the edge tonight
I'm standin' on the ledge, so why
Hold you, reach out your hand
Just save, just save me tonight
I'm damaged if you dare, tonight
It feels like no one cares, so why
Can I come back for air?
Just save (just save), just save me tonight

I'm closer to the edge tonight
I'm standin' on the ledge, so why
Hold you, reach out your hand
Just save (just save), just save me
What are you waitin' for?
Someone save me

    Song Meaning

    Skillet themselves has said of the track: This song is about the darker side of you that you are afraid to show people. If they only knew how messed up I am, would they still love me? This song is about getting honest and asking for help. Relationships are hard and eventually the real you is going to appear.
