Rescue Me

This skin, these bones, were never my own.
 I've come so far, just to end up alone
 And if we're being honest, under the surface I'm not so perfect.
 And now it's plain to see, all the wasted promise that lies beneath.
 And now I know
 I try to fight it. I don't want to show
 A side of me that I never thought I'd know.
 A different person that I can't erase.
 And now I'm buried in my mistakes.
 No one can rescue me.
 You know that I'm just skin and bones.
 Make believe that I am more than typical.
 I never want to let it show, that I'll ever need help from someone like you.
 And now I'm questioning, cause I can't believe that my life could change
 but I've gotta change 'cause I'm so afraid that my light will fade
 searching for purpose in things I know aren't real.
 You can't scratch the surface if you don't know how to feel
 And now I know
 I try to fight it. I don't want to show
 A side of me that I never thought I'd know.
 A different person that I can't erase.
 And now I'm buried in my mistakes.
 No one can rescue me.
 Staring in the dark, I never did see.
 This whole damn time, it was staring back at me
 And if we're being honest now
 I try to fight it. I don't want to show
 A side of me that I never thought I'd know.
 A different person that I can't erase.
 And now I'm buried in my mistakes.
 No one can rescue me.
