I am lost with no key
And I worry there's no easy way out of this place
I'm the pain that I cause.
Must I let out all the evil to be healed?
To be healed. Is it really what I want?
Don't be mean now, you know how I feel.
Give relief, don't be mean to me
Just leave me the key
For this once, it's my turn to be the strong one,
You're in pain, I try to leave with grace
Say hello to my tear, I have only one,
I kept it safe for this moment
To be healed, is that really what we want?
Don't be mean, it's not what we need now
Give relief, don't be mean to me
That's not what we need.
Believe in me, don't be mean to me
Just leave me the key
To be healed, is it really what we want
Don't be mean, that's not what we need
Be relieved, don't be mean to me
Just do as you please.
When you leave, don't be mean to me
Just leave me the key
So when you leave, don't be mean
Leave in peace.
