Haul Me Up

Haul me up, please help me I'm drowning

Haul me up, to where I can breathe

Haul me up, where the air is sweeter

Stretch out a hand, a hand brother please

Oh I'm walking in a sea of molasses

Every step I take oh it sucks me down

The more I fight, the more that it grips me

If I sink much further, I'm looking to drown

Haul me up, well I'm lost in confusion

Haul me up, I'm up to my knees

Haul me up, I'm back in the quicksand

Stretch out a hand, a hand brother please

Haul me up, please help me I'm drowning

Haul me up, to where I can breathe

Haul me up, where the air is sweeter

Stretch out a hand, a hand brother please

Now here comes Jezebel, sweet as the morning

Holds out a cup and I'm tempted to drink

Six thousand voices ringing in the rafters

How can I dream when I can't even think

Haul me up, now the banshees are wailing

Haul me up, now the sirens are singing

Haul me up, now the furies are screaming

Stretch out a hand, a hand brother please

Haul me up, please help me I'm drowning

Haul me up, to where I can breathe

Haul me up, where the air is sweeter

Stretch out a hand, a hand brother please

Now I'm fighting but oh, the disease has got me

Now what is this sickness that has no name?

Who are these friends that kill me with kindness

I don't know the rules but I'm trapped in the game

Haul me up, well I'm lost in confusion

Haul me up, I'm up to my knees

Haul me up, I'm back in the quicksand

Stretch out a hand, a hand brother please

Haul me up, now the banshees are wailing

Haul me up, now the sirens are singing

Haul me up, now the furies are screaming

Stretch out a hand, a hand brother please

Haul me up

Haul me up

Haul me up

Haul me up
