Cracks and Holes

I realized this morning, around the break of day
I got no one to turn to, got no one to blame
For my own inhibitions, inability
To see the cracks and holes in life we fall through, that are on me

I cracked another bottle, and paid homage to my fear
Of all that is around me, it all seems so clear
That I’m sitting on the outside, I’m looking through
Looking in from the outside, wondering what to do

(chorus) It’s so hard, Baby, to find your way back
There’s not just one road, Baby, in retrospect
No way that you can ever really, really know
Will I ever dodge these cracks and holes
That I keep falling through, that I keep falling through?

I guess different people, they act different ways
Dealing with the issues, facing all the days
While I just sit here, dealing with the strain
Of all the cracks and holes and things, that are in the way

(chorus) Sometimes I wonder what the hell is going on
And I keep thinking that I can’t hang on too long
I need your help, your help to get me through
All these cracks and holes, that I keep falling, falling, falling through
That I keep falling through?
