White Coats

As a child, my mother said to me
Don't be afraid to lead the way you see
And it's only you who knows
Nobody else can see.

But do I chase myself into the dark?
In the thousand ways to lead me back to the start
But you make it easy, you
To be who I want to be.

And if the man in white comes circling
I know you'll still be there for me
To chase down the walls around us
I keep the memories inside my mind
To show me how to leave the darkness
You will take me home one day believe me.

Take my hand and lead me out from his
Hunted down, their footsteps drawing near
I knew you would come for me
I'm sorry you're in so deep.

And if the man in white comes circling
I know you'll still be there for me
To chase down the walls around us
I keep the memories inside my mind
To show me how to leave the darkness
You will take me home one day believe me.

And I was so scared, I could not see the light
I didn't want to be alone
Would you just stand there watch them hold me down
I need to know that you're around.

And I was so scared, I could not see the light
I didn't want to be alone
Would you just stand there watch them hold me down
I need to know that you're around.
