The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I feel forsaken - Everything was taken - I turned against me - I turned against me...
Tubes sticking into me. There's blood everywhere
Damn that surgery. Damn the choice I made
The ride of my life. Lasted only for a while
Now the cross I have bear. Is there for all to see...
If I could I'd end this pain. I can't take the shame I feel
But my hands feel too weak. And they say that I need sleep
But they won't let me sink. Into never ending sleep
Now the cross I have bear. Is there for all to see
First Chorus:
Why do I feel so insecure
My own body, it won't work
I feel like I'm hanging on I'm hanging on a thread
I can take this pain but not regret...
They say that I must eat. They say that I look weak
What the fuck do they know. Please stay away from me
How I want to end this pain. But my mind is too weak
This fucking cross I have to bear. Is there for all to see
Second Chorus:
Why do I feel so insecure
My own body it won't work
I feel like I'm hanging on I'm hanging on a thread
I can take this pain but not regret...
Now all is on the line
Do I have to read between these lies
I feel like I'm hanging on I'm hanging on a thread
I can take this pain but not regret...
