[Jesse to Self]
There's place where I'm
Oh - with sorrowed lives
And all the souls
Oh - they're wishing they could die
Take me down
And drown this the orphan forever
Ya know I do
Wish away the pain
And wash away my life
Find me down inside a shallow pool
Down a wishing well
No more bleeding
No more screaming tonight
Wash away my pain
Oh - in the well of sighs
For I have no face - oh
Abandoned for all, for all time
[Jesse thinking of his mother]
Why, why am I nothing?
Oh mamma why, why'd you leave me
A throw away for life
Oh - oh why, why am I nothing
Oh and mamma why
Can you feel me there
Oh God I wanna die
