Out of the Depths

Monday morning

Try to drag myself to school again

Tuesday, same thing

Strap the happy mask on and pretend

In front of my friends

Wednesday's worse yet

I hate the way I look and so does she

By Friday evening

I could hurt somebody, even me

Out of the depths I'm crying

And God, you better be hearing me scream

Are you sleeping at the switch

Or just not trying?

'Cause my life is like some twisted dream

Won't you send me an angel

Or just someone who cares

I don't know how much longer

I can keep coming up for air

In my bedroom

All the lights off and the music loud

One more weekend

Got the brush-off by the happening crowd

And aren't they proud

I know you're busy

Making sure the universe runs right

But right about now

I could use someone to get me through the night

Out of the depths I'm crying

And God, you better be hearing me scream

Are you sleeping at the switch

Or just not trying?

'Cause my life is like some twisted dream

Won't you send me an angel

Or just someone who cares

I don't know how much longer

I can keep coming up for air

I could just end it all

But who would keep you up at night?

You're gonna hear me

Even if I have to use this prayer to pick a fight

Out of the depths I'm crying

And God, you better be hearing me scream

It's getting so hard to believe

But still I'm trying

So don't just make fool of me

Won't you send me an angel

Or just someone who cares

I don't need easy answers

I just need to know you're there

Just need you with me everywhere

I just need to know you're there

Just need you with me everywhere
