“Lifeline” goes back to the business of delving into Liu’s mental and emotional hurts and triumphs, picking at the scar tissue left from battles she fought with the world and within herself. The overwhelming sensation of the song, as with the album, is freedom.
[Verse 1]
I was searching for a lifeline
Anything to grab onto
Hopes of someone out there listening
But you just stood
[Pre-Chorus]
You said time heals wounds
So take them anyway (Anyway)
You said time heals wounds
Oh, take them anyway (Anyway)
[Chorus]
When all I need is you (All I need is you, all I need is you)
All I need is you (All I need is you, all I need is you)
You said time heals wounds
Oh, take them anyway, take them anyway
You're all I need
[Post-Chorus]
(All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)
(All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)
When all I need is you (All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)
All I need is you (All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)
[Verse 2]
On the surface, you were right there
Yes, you were right there
Tell me something I don't know
Tell me something I haven't heard before (When all I need is you)
[Chorus]
(When all I need is you) You said time heals wounds
Oh, take them anyway (All I need is you)
(When all I need is you) You said time heals wounds
Oh, take them anyway (All I need is you)
Take them anyway
You're all I need
[Post-Chorus]
(All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)
(All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)
(All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)
(All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)
When all I need is you (All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)
All I need is you (All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)
When all I need is you (All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)
All I need is you (All I, all I need is you, all I need is you)

That was the hardest song for me. I heard the beat and I was like, “I have nothing to write.” Usually when I songwrite, it usually starts off with the topic or a vision rather than the melodies. I rewrote this one four or five times, completely, and the idea of “Lifeline” didn’t come till the third...
