Lullaby for J

Well, I know the feeling
Of finding yourself stuck out on the ledge,
And there ain't no healing
From cutting yourself with the jagged edge.
I'm telling you that it's never that bad
Take it from someone who's been where you're at,
Laid out on the floor,
And you're not sure you can take this anymore.

So just give it one more try to a lullaby
And turn this up on the radio.
If you can hear me now,
I'm reaching out
To let you know that you're not alone.
And if you can't tell, “I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get you on the telephone”,
So just close your eyes,
Oh, honey, here comes a lullaby,
Your very own lullaby.

Please, let me take you
Out of the darkness and into the light
'Cause I have faith in you
That you're gonna make it through another night.
Stop thinking about the easy way out,
There's no need to go and blow the candle out
Because you're not done,
You're far too young,
And the best is yet to come.

So just give it one more try to a lullaby
And turn this up on the radio.
If you can hear me now
I'm reaching out
To let you know that you're not alone.
And if you can't tell, “I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get you on the telephone”,
So just close your eyes,
Oh, honey, here comes a lullaby,
Your very own lullaby.

Well, everybody's hit the bottom,
Everybody's been forgotten
When everybody's tired of being alone.
Yeah, everybody's been abandoned
And left a little empty handed,
So if you're out there barely hanging on...

So just give it one more try to a lullaby
And turn this up on the radio.
If you can hear me now
I'm reaching out
To let you know that you're not alone.
And if you can't tell, "I'm scared as hell
'Cause I can't get you on the telephone",
So just close your eyes,
Oh, honey, here comes a lullaby,
Your very own lullaby.
