Can you pick me up the floor?
Cause I don't want to be here anymore
If you know me
can you love me
beyond these walls I've built
it's so lonely inside these bones of mine
but I can't shake this darkness loose
long enough to reach out
and say, hello
I need you
don't let me drown
don't let me drown
Can you pick me up the floor?
Cause I don't want to be here anymore
I don't know me
how can you love me
when I don't know me
I laughed and you asked me
if I was okay
Has it been so long
since you've seen me smile
that you don't know what to do
with my laughter?
I laughed and you asked me
if I was okay
and I would rather bury it
than have you look at me
like you don't know who I am
Please don't look at me
Do you still know who I am?
I don't know who I am
Can you pick me up the floor?
Don't let me drown
Cause I don't want to be here anymore
If you know me
can you love me
beyond these walls I've built
it's so lonely inside these bones of mine
but I can't shake this darkness loose
long enough to reach out
and say, hello
I need you
don't let me drown
don't let me drown
Can you pick me up the floor?
Cause I don't want to be here anymore
I don't know me
how can you love me
when I don't know me
I laughed and you asked me
if I was okay
Has it been so long
since you've seen me smile
that you don't know what to do
with my laughter?
I laughed and you asked me
if I was okay
and I would rather bury it
than have you look at me

Do you still know who I am?
I don't know who I am
Can you pick me up the floor?
Don't let me drown
