When the weight of the world bears down so strong
You leave footprints on the street
And there's too many miles to face
Without a few more hours sleep

The storm clouds overhead won't shed
Any rain to quench your thirst
I wanna be the one you reach for first

When your faith is stretched so thin
That you can see straight through your soul
And you can't find a nickel to buy a smile
'Cause your pockets all got holes

You wanna shut the door and hide
Before the day can get much worse
I wanna be the one you reach for first

Fall into me
My arms are open wide and you don't have to say a word
'Cause I already see
That it's hard and you're scared and you're tired and it hurts
And I wanna be the one you reach for first

I wanna be the bottle
You've been drinking with your eyes
Or the road you run away on
You've been running all your life

The third row pew that you last knew
As a child in church
I wanna be the one you reach for first

Fall into me
My arms are open wide and you don't have to say a word
'Cause I already see
That it's hard and you're scared and you're tired and it hurts
And I wanna be the one you reach for first

Before your turn the key
Before you fall asleep
Before your drift away to fight those demons
Waiting for you in your dreams

Before your arms are stretched wide open
Before you're reaching for the sky
Before you're searching for direction
And all the answers to your why's

Fall into me
Well, my arms are stretched wide open, you don't have to say a word
Because I already see
That it's hard and you're scared and you're tired and I know it hurts
Yes, it's hard and you're scared and you're tired and it hurts
And I wanna be the one you reach for first
