So don't let me down

I wake up in this bed, with a cold heartache and a searing pain in my head. I look around and pray that this pain won't last. To start a new day, to leave it all in my past. I've always left things unsaid. And it's always left me with a lifeless body and a wanting to be dead.

So I'll fight this, I'll take this leap. I'm losing it all and I only want to bleed. So I'll make this, and find a way to see, I'll take this fall and this isn't how it's supposed to be.

I'll find out, figure it out, where I'm supposed to be. I'll break out, take it all out, on who I used to be, this is what I need. I lay down in the tall grass, thinking about all the times I said "please don't let me down." Now that I've started to drown, I wonder about what happened inside that made me feel this way, so I say

Please don't let me down

Again I find heart and compassion, taking steps so I don't end up in the same old fashion. The floorboards crack where I walk, please sit me down and help me out, I know these feelings still stalk.

I'm not a dead man, I just want to know where I stand. I'm not a dead man, I'm not a dead man, I'm not dead yet.

I'll find out, figure it out, where I'm supposed to be. I'll break out, take it all out, on who I used to be, this is what I need. I lay down in the tall grass, thinking about all the times I said "please don't let me down." Now that I've started to drown, I wonder about what happened inside that made me feel this way, so I say.
