White Coats lyrics

[Verse 1]
As a child, my mother said to me
"Don't be afraid to lead the way you see
And it's only you who knows
Nobody else can see"
But do I chase myself into the dark?
And a thousand ways to lead me back to start
But you make it easier to be who I want to be

[Chorus]
And if the men in white coats are coming
I know you'll still be there for me
To chase down the walls around us
I keep the memories inside my mind
To show me how to leave the darkness
You will take me home one day, believe me

[Verse 2]
Take my hand and lead me out from here
Hunted down, their footsteps drawing near
I knew you would come for me
I'm sorry you're in so deep

[Chorus]
And if the men in white coats are coming
I know you'll still be there for me
To chase down the walls around us
I keep the memories inside my mind
To show me how to leave the darkness
You will take me home one day, believe me
[Refrain]
And I was so scared, I could not see the light
I didn't want to be alone
Would you just stand there and watch them hold me down?
I need to know that you're around

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Refrain]
And I was so scared, I could not see the light
I didn't want to be alone
Would you just stand there and watch them hold me down?
I need to know that you're around
