Hear Me
I try to hold on
I try not to break
But trying isn’t good enough
And sometimes you know you’re gonna fall
But you pick up the pieces
Of your messed up world
And your broken heart
And every time you miss a little piece
You shatter like glass
All over the floor
Because you just can’t take
The pain anymore
I’m screaming at the world but they don’t see
How everything’s wrong with me
And if you asked if I’m alright
I’d tell you the whole story
About the girl afraid to fly
About the girl who watched herself die
When she had no more hope to give
How she’d forgotten how to live
And maybe, just maybe,
You’d understand about me.
Your eyes are hollows
You can count your ribs
And see your spine
But no one notices something’s wrong
So you turn away
With tears in your eyes
Perfect isn’t good enough
And you just want to be something
So you let them
Treat you like nothing
And your heart opens up
And you can’t feel it beating
I’m screaming at the world but they don’t see
How everything’s wrong with me
And if you asked if I’m alright
I’d tell you the whole story
About the girl afraid to fly
About the girl who watched herself die
When she had no more hope to give
How she’d forgotten how to live
And maybe, just maybe,
You’d understand about me.
It’s a tradgedy, why don’t you see
I’m broken, so broken,
But nobody hears and nobody listens
I’m not better than anyone, I’m practically nothing
And I’m left crying in the corner
And I can’t, And I can’t, do this again
I’m screaming at the world but they don’t see
How everything’s wrong with me
And if you asked if I’m alright
I’d tell you the whole story
About the girl afraid to fly
About the girl who watched herself die
When she had no more hope to give
How she’d forgotten how to live
And maybe, just maybe,
You’d understand about me.
And maybe, just maybe, someone will finally
Hear me.
