Here I am, a hiding girl
crying as my story unfurls...
Earning respect, life's one worth,
so far gone, so far dispersed.
Hidden from me, gone away.
A beautiful image, an ugly day.
Feelings expressed, emotions delayed,
hiding inside, feeling betrayed.
Learning this thing, something to hide...
accepting myself - I take it in stride...
Why do I live, when so long I have tried,
wanting and waiting, wanting to die?
Hurt who I am, a voice from above,
countless emotions, a deep loss of love.
I cry out hopelessly, wanting to be saved,
wanting great peace, wanting a grave.
Why do I feel this way? I really must know...
Why all this ache; why do I feel so low?
Just tell me please, who you think I should be...
Do you understand? Do you even know me?
I know I was born...but why do I live?
Give me a choice; let me forgive...
Can't you see I'm dying inside?
Losing myself, losing all pride.
Tell me I"m important; tell me I have worth.
Explain to me this: the reason of my birth.
Give me an answer to all of my pain...
What is left for me? What is left to gain?
My string lies frayed and my heart bleeds broken.
Give me the kind words which you have spoken.
Not long from now the thread will break,
but when that happens, will you realize your mistake?
Will you tell me what you really thought?
Will you forgive me for all the pain I've brought?...
