save myself


and the clock ticks
louder and louder
every second of right now
turns into the past
I hear my heart beat
stronger and stronger
I do not know
how long I can last

          can you hear me crying
          can you help me now
          I need to save myself
          but I don't know how

I wake up in darkness
it's 2:30 a.m.
I worry about everything
my tired mind can hold
I'm scared and I'm anxious
it's happening again
my brain won't do
anything it's told

          can you hear me crying
          can you help me now
          I need to save myself
          but I don't know how

          isn't there a pill I can take
          isn't there a drink I can make
          sometimes life is just a mistake
          and this is one of those times

eight in the morning
time is going faster
I am struggling
for a way to keep up
I keep on waiting
for the forthcoming disaster
no matter what happens
I've had enough

          can you hear me crying
          can you help me now
          I need to save myself
          but I don't know how
