I want to open up my mind again
And I want to leave the pain where it began
The struggle lies within my own head
It feels like I'm still paying my own debt
For things I never thought were true
I painted pictures that were blue
Now I know that they were red
So I took my things and fled
Seems I will never be content when I
Feel like things are going way to right
I keep a little book inside my head
And write down the things that keep me from being dead
And every day that I am here
Makes my view seem crystal clear
Now I know I'm supposed to give
To show my friends why they should live

I'm at a crossroads again
These thoughts come and go like the seasons
I'm reaching out for some help here
When I hang up I am full of tears
You'll never know what it's like in my head
If you'd listen maybe you would know what I have said
You wonder why I never speak
You make me feel like I am so damn weak
But I'm stronger than hell
If I wasn't I'd be dead now
So take a moment open up your eyes
They've been sewn shut for quite some time
I can't lose you again
But I am afraid of what will happen in the end

Mercy

The sun will rise and birds will chirp if they want to
I can't seem to shake this feeling it's haunting
Sometimes I just wanna burn all the memories
But all their roots have found their way inside me
The longer that my vision seems real blurry
The further I will lose myself on this journey
I know it is my choice if I wanna be happy
But most the time it feels like darkness surrounds me
I wanna be okay
I have asked you thousands of times to kill me
Right now I am breathing like I'm really healthy
I know there is some kind of reason you keep me
So every day I'll beg you to show me some mercy please
I wanna be okay
