Out of the Depths

Monday morning
Try to drag myself to school again
Tuesday, same thing
Strap the happy mask on and pretend
In front of my friends

Wednesday's worse yet
I hate the way I look and so does she
By Friday evening
I could hurt somebody, even me

Out of the depths I'm crying
And God, you better be hearing me scream
Are you sleeping at the switch
Or just not trying?
'Cause my life is like some twisted dream
Won't you send me an angel
Or just someone who cares
I don't know how much longer
I can keep coming up for air

In my bedroom
All the lights off and the music loud
One more weekend
Got the brush-off by the happening crowd
And aren't they proud

I know you're busy
Making sure the universe runs right
But right about now
I could use someone to get me through the night

Out of the depths I'm crying
And God, you better be hearing me scream
Are you sleeping at the switch
Or just not trying?
'Cause my life is like some twisted dream
Won't you send me an angel
Or just someone who cares
I don't know how much longer
I can keep coming up for air

I could just end it all
But who would keep you up at night?
You're gonna hear me
Even if I have to use this prayer to pick a fight

Out of the depths I'm crying
And God, you better be hearing me scream
It's getting so hard to believe
But still I'm trying
So don't just make fool of me
Won't you send me an angel
Or just someone who cares
I don't need easy answers
I just need to know you're there
Just need you with me everywhere
I just need to know you're there
Just need you with me everywhere
