You've felt like this once before,
I wish you would tell me how you got through it
I don't see a clear path, how will I make it out?
I know you would tell me what to do
But I'm only screaming desperately into a void
You're not there but I really need you
It hurts that you can't come through
Why did you say you could help?
It puzzles me because you know I can't tell you what's happening
I promise you I've tried, there's nothing I can do
I don't understand this feeling
I can't explain it to anyone, they'd run away from me
But it's not wrong just to want to talk, is it?
Please tell me how to find you
I just need help, you're the only thing that can save me from this
I just need assurance, but not from anyone else
I need to know that you see me
But I doubt you'll ever recognize my condition
I want you to pick me up, you said you will if I want it
That moment was an empty promise
Though I'm aware it isn't your fault
I don't make any sense to anyone here,
But I think you'd get me better
I have too many questions,
And I can't express a single one to get an answer
I wish you could hear me
I wish you could read my words
I wish you would say you know I'm gonna be okay
Most of all, I wish that statement was the truth
Because I have so much to say
But there will never be a way
