My superman is gone
I'm left to cope
I'm left on my own
Some days are hard to get through
When you're attacking yourself.

I dream of being saved
Just walking away
The same way I almost did
Eight days before
My world ended
This time I'm scared
Of what I'll do
I don't know if I trust
Who I've become
Am I really better?
Or have I just tricked myself?
And everyone else?

Self doubt isn't pretty
It never has been on me
I don't know
Where I'm meant to go
With love
With work
I have to keep going
Maybe one day I'll know.

Being saved is possible
So is fixing my soul
I thought I did
I know who can complete it.
Someone I can feel good enough for
I don't have to edit my words
I'll dig myself out
Of the hole I'm falling into.

Maybe someone will see my hands as I dig
Pull me out
So I don't have to work
Harder than I should
To make me feel good
Like I usually do.

Save me please
Cause I'm afraid I'll slip
Back into the hole
Be sad and lost as I was before.
