Shelter

I'm not that modest
I don’t know what to call it
That part is true
If I go through all this
I need you to follow
Help me help you
I'm always second
You hardly ever bother
Nothing is new
Lied when you met me
You never wear the collar
Something to prove

I don't get chances
Have only the wrong answers
Failing the tests
I’m not that man
It looks easier on camera
Can't see the rest

I'm covering from the moment I'm awake
Shelter
I'm suffering, can't you tell when I'm afraid?
Help her
Baby I'm the forest you’re the flames
Swelter
Sweating from my pores and through my veins
Well sure
This alone, won’t work
Don't know if it goes closer
Friends will try to help
They’ll ask you how and what the hell did he
Say to make you want closure

I'm not that modest
I don't know what to call it
That part is true
If I go through all this
I need you to follow
Help me help you
I'm always second
You hardly ever bother
Nothing is new
Lied when you met me
You never wear the collar
Something to prove
