Rescue Me Lyrics

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
