How many times do I have to scream for help
Why can’t you just know how I felt
How many times do I have to say I’m drowning
Why can’t you see I’m constantly frowning
How many times do I say I need you
Why can’t you see I’m forever blue
How many times do I have to say I’m broken
Why can’t you see all the words unspoken
How many times do I have to stay
Why can’t you see you’d be better if I went away
How many times do I have to hold on
Why can’t you see I’m already gone
How many times do you put up with this
Why can’t you see...

I am once again lost and cannot be found
Even you’re no longer there when I turn around
You say that you need me and I need you too
It’s hard to feel needed when you’re constantly blue
I’m tired of trying and tired of crying
A huge part of me is continually dying
I’m no longer understanding or forgiving it’s true
I’m always sorry for what I do
How could I possibly walk back to your open arms
When all I see is how I harm
I always tell you it’ll be different this time
Truth is I think that’s just my favorite line
This heart is...

Everyday I wake up and dread
Today is the day you’ll meet my demon instead
I’ve kept him hidden for so long
But I can only be so strong
He lingers in the dark
Waiting for the moment to make his mark
He’s slowly taking over
An under-covered Rover
I try my hardest to keep him hidden
For a demon like him is completely forbidden
I keep reaching out for your hand
But you’ve had more than you can stand
So I take on this demon by myself
And like usual my feelings go on a shelf
It’s not that I don’t love you with all my heart ...
