Give me something to hold on to
I need a reason to stay with you
I'm trying to leave here, but it just don't show
I've been doing it real slow
I've been crawlin' away
I let a woman get the best of me
Still, I'm hanging around so helplessly
I lack the courage to just cut and run
Even after all you've done
I've been crawlin' away
The road is long, it's been calling me
It brings me down onto my knees, yeah
I've been trying to stand up on my own
But being held down here is all I've ever known
I wish I had a way to make you see
I just want to be free
I've been crawlin' away
The road is long, it's been calling me
It brings me down onto my knees
Lord, I've been crawlin' away
I've been crawlin' away
I want to leave today
I've been crawlin' away
Oh lord
I've been crawlin' away
