I've been in an existential funk
since I can't remember being free
Not knowing where I came from,

or what will become of me

Existence is fragile,

and I'm finding it hard not to fear the end
Please hold me close to you
I need you here, my friend


You see, right now this fear of living,
it is scaring me to death

Not knowing how I will go on
with my life in such a mess


Existence is fragile,
and I'm finding it hard not to fear the end
Just hold me close to you

I'm in desperate need of a friend

Not someone with all the answers,

just someone to calm my heart
To show me life's worth living,
and every moment's just a start

To be there while I'm falling
to help me cup my heart
To show me life's worth living,

and every moment's just a start

Oh, will you be here to help me while I fall


I need you, I need you
I need you, I need you

Hold me close
I need you, I need you
Hold me close


Existence is fragile


Will you be here?
Will you be here, my friend?
I need you here with me


Will you hold me close?
Oh, I need you here,

I need you here
