Pull Me Out
By Bebo Norman
Tell me now, when does this start feeling
like I understand everything I’m dealing with
First I was young, now it’s all just happening
And what about the way I said that
made you turn around and shake your head
Like I don’t even know what I’m asking for
This could be all about just letting go
This could be all about just holding on
I can’t get my feet off of the ground
I wanna run but I don’t know how
Can you reach me here and pull me out, Can you pull me out, yeah
I wanna scream but there’s no sound
I wanna fly to you somehow
Can you reach me here and pull me out, Can you pull me out
Remember when I was young and hungry,
I could take it in, without much money,
I had nothing at all but dreams and time to kill
And now I feel like I’m treading water
And I’m hardly real - I’m just trying harder
to make my way on the earth by standing still
This could be all about just letting go
This could be all about just holding on
I can’t get my feet off of the ground
I wanna run but I don’t know how
Can you reach me here and pull me out, Can you pull me out, yeah
I wanna scream but there’s no sound
I wanna fly to you somehow
Can you reach down here and pull me out, Can you pull me out, yeah
Not a moment too soon You will be my rescue
But tell me how long will it take?
I can’t get my feet off of the ground
I wanna run but I don’t know how
Can you reach me here and pull me out, Can you pull me out
I wanna scream but there’s no sound
I wanna fly to you somehow
Can you reach me here and pull me out – Can you pull me out
Can you pull me out? Can you reach down and pull me out?
