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 can't sleep
I can't eat
If I give them what they want
Then, well, then they just let me be
Who I am
I'm not like them
I'm sick at nodding my head
At the thing I can't stand
This is it
Oh, my friends
I've tired so hard
But I cannot pretend
Cross my heart
Hope to make it out alive
Their helping hands look more like suicide
If I don't make it out
Remember that I tried
Cross my heart
Hope to breathe this time
Day by day
Night by night
I sat alone with pen and page
Trying to do what's right
God, I pray, shed some light
Cause if I burn I want to burn out bright
Cross my heart
Hope to make it out alive
Their helping hands, look more like suicide
If I don't make it out
Remember that I tried
Cross my heart
Hope to breathe this time
You make all things new
And no one need you like I do
You know I do
Oh, you make all things new
And no one needs it like I do
I needed you
Cross my heart
Hope to make it out alive
Their helping hands, look more like suicide
If I don't make it out
Remember that I tried
Cross my heart
Hope to breathe this time
Cross my heart
Hope to make it out alive
Their helping hands, look more like suicide
If I don't make it out
Remember that I tried
Cross my heart
Hope to breathe this time
