[Verse 1]
Hard times, hard times
When I really need somebody to hold me tight
And tell me I m strong
Last night, last night
You were really there for me, so thank you
For playin along
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But I gotta be honest with ya, baby
This is not about love
I gotta be honest with ya, baby
I m not above usin you
to get me through the night
[Chorus 1]
Baby, don t leave me alone with my thoughts
I don t wanna get caught in the current of my mind
Baby, don t leave me alone with my thoughts
Oo-oo-oo-oooo
[Verse 2]
An old man, an old man
Has got his little hands on the button
Feels like nothin anyone can do
People out there crackin up, crackin up
And I m just tryin to keep it together
Notice that I feel better when I m holdin you
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I gotta be honest with ya, baby
This is not about love
I gotta be honest with ya, baby
You re here help rid me of
The demons of the night
[Chorus 1]
Baby, don t leave me alone with my thoughts
I don t wanna get caught in the current of my mind
Baby, don t leave me alone with my thoughts
Oooooo
[Bridge]
Would you be my human shield?
Hold you so that I don t feel anything?
Hold you so that I don t hear the ringin in my head?

[Chorus 2]
Baby, don t leave me alone with my thoughts
I don t wanna get caught in the current of my mind
Baby, don t leave me alone with my thoughts
I don t wanna get caught in the prison of the present time
Baby, don t leave me alone with my thoughts
Oooooo
[Outro]
Would you be my human shield?
Hold you so that I don t feel anything?
Would you be my human shield?
Hold you so that I don t feel anything?
Hold you so that I don t hear the ringin in my head, anymore?
