When I wake up,
I wanna cry
Shout out and ask god why
Why do I have to be insane,
Have this messed up thing for a brain
I wish I was normal sometimes
Cause normal people don’t seem to wanna die
And I’m not gonna lie, that sounds nice enough to me

I hope you know I live you,
You’re what’s holdin me together,
Keepin me alive
When I think of you I know,
I must’ve done something right
Cause not everyone gets lucky like me
Getting something he doesn’t deserve for free

Maybe it’s not really for free,
Cause life has it pains and ecstasy
It just seems to make me laugh and cry before it makes me bleed
I just wish this pain would go away, or at least hold itself at bay
Cause it’ll never be right; never be quite the same
Sometimes,
I just wish I could cry
So I knew I was still alive
Not yet dead inside
Like they always remind

And every once in a while,
I’ll try to deny
But I always know that they’re right
No matter how much you fight
It’s not a matter of time; it’s a matter of spite
And they got a lot of that, alright

I know you say you love me,
And I love you too
And god, I hope when you say it it’s true
Cause I don’t mean much anymore without you
And I wouldn’t have it be any other way,
I don’t care that I’m insane
And I don’t think you do, either
