Falling from the edge,
Grasping for a ledge,
Reach out to save me,
Before I leap free.
Cannot do this alone,
Can't you hear it in my tone,
Saying Im fine,
But its just another practiced line?
Why cant anyone see,
Im not the girl thats me,
But just one running from herself,
Hiding from her twisted mental health.
Its dark inside,
No where to hide,
Someone reach out to save me,
Before I leap free.
Looking into the mirror,
I really need someone here,
Not what I want to see,
Can this really be me?
Its suddenly too dark to see,
Maybe light a candle,
This is too much to handle.
Sudden burst of light,
Quick moment of flight,
Finally free,
Because no one saved me.

Falling from the edge,
Grasping for a ledge,
Reach out to save me,

Why cant anyone see,

But just one running from herself,
Hiding from her twisted mental health.
Its dark inside,
No where to hide,

Before I leap free.
Looking into the mirror,
I really need someone here,
Not what I want to see,

Its suddenly too dark to see,
Maybe light a candle,
This is too much to handle.
Sudden burst of light,
Quick moment of flight,
Finally free,
Because no one saved me.
