Pull me Out – Bebo Norman

To be released on his upcoming album.  Of this song, Norman says "I have silently walked the last four years or so with a building and recently diagnosed struggle with anxiety. The irony is that the struggle has been with the one thing I have always found comfort and consistency in - singing the songs that I so dearly love to sing. This song is about letting go of the earthly things that drag me down and holding tightly to the things of heaven that pull me out."

So tell me now, when does this start feeling like I understand
Everything I’m dealing with, first I was young, now it’s all just
happening
What about the way I said that made you turn around

And shake your head like I don’t even know what I’m asking for


This could be all about just letting go

This could be all about just holding on


I can’t get my feet off of the ground

I want to run but I don’t know how
Can you reach down here and pull me out?

I want to scream but there’s no sound,

I want to fly to you somehow

Can you reach me here and pull me out?


Remember when I was young and hungry, I could take it in
Without much money, I had nothing at all but dreams and time to kill
Now I feel like I’m treading water and I’m hardly real

I’m just trying harder to make my way on the earth by standing still


This could be all about just letting go

This could be all about just holding on


Not a moment too soon

You will be my rescue
But tell me how long will it take

I can’t get my feet off of the ground
I want to run but I don’t know how

Can you reach me here and pull me out?


I want to scream but there’s no sound

I want to fly to you somehow

But you reach me here and pull me out
