Slippin'

There you go again slippin'
Doin' the things you said you'd never do again
You hear me callin' your name, you're hiding
But I know just where you are so close but yet so far

Turn around and see the miles you've come
Do you really wanna go back
Just to start again, oh, my friend

I can't bear to see you go out that way
Don't make the mistake of letting go
Don't be afraid, I'm here
Hold on to me, your slippin'

Pretending everything is okay
In the front of the crowd, you're smilin'
But after everyone's gone, you're all along
You're not fine, you're slippin'

Take off the mask with me
I see your heart, it's hurting
If you wanna stay with me, I need honesty
Don't play with me, you're slippin'

Can't make it on your own, stop tryin'
I've got the power to keep you from fallin'
If I could just have the chance to show you
What real happiness is like, together we'll win the fight
