When You Fall Lyrics

If I could change
One thing about myself
I would have the strength
To keep harm away
And forever keep you safe.
When you're lying in my arms
Do you even feel protected?
'Cause in my head, what goes unsaid
Is I am nothing you expected.

Please forgive me, I cannot be the one you call your guardian.
I'm far too weak to ever be the man you need.
And I don't wanna have the strength you need to carry on.
I just wanna have the strength to catch you when you fall

Please excuse the way
I've been hanging my head in shame
'Cause it's not your fault
That I run from all,
All the mistakes that I've made.
So I guess I'm trying to say that I'm sorry.
I guess I've always hated this part of me.
I'm not worried about the struggle within
It's on the outside I am stretched so thin.

Please forgive me, I cannot be the one you call your guardian.
I'm far too weak to ever be the man you need.
And I don't wanna have the strength you need to carry on.
I just wanna have the strength to catch you when you fall
