When your friends are falling apart
And you own a broken heart
Your eyes fill with tears every time it's dark
And the pain inside hurts
You overflow with this need to fade
And you wish you could trade
Your life for the perfect ones on tv
And your dying inside but no one can see
You split your skin again, people won't understand
And you hate yourself for the scars left on your wrist below your hand
But in the dark there looks like only one road to go
And if there's another you just didn't know
And the rain is falling harder than it was before
The thunders so loud it shakes the door
We can't be perfect I'm nowhere near
But maybe if I pray loud enough god will hear
Maybe if I ask for him to just hold me
Like I need to be
These feelings and thoughts will subside
And I can fix myself inside
Imagine that wouldn't it be nice?
But something so easy always has a price
