Dig for me down deep
the sand tumbles in; it will seep

I want you to find me
I'm calling for you
I promise I'm trying
I'm sorry I'm blue

pull me up
reach for my hand
I'm sinking
there's just too much sand

I dug a hole and accidently fell in
I wish I could get out myself
but I hardly know where to begin

I want to be the hero of my story
but sometimes I need help too
I don't want you to worry
I just don't want to burden you

People have tried and failed
I felt their hand
I grasped it
but I slipped and they bailed

I dug a hole and accidently fell in
I wish I could get out myself
but I hardly know where to begin
