I grew up insecure

Afraid of everything

Just wanted to feel something



No confidence

I had no one who believed

That I was anything

Left to find my own



Through the years I've found

A safety in a world

That some my call "destructive"



Bring on the insanity

It feeds this part of me

It helps the parts I'm missing

Forgive what I've done



You weren't around

On the day I walked away

All I needed was a helping hand

And I saw myself walking away from me



So long, so numb inside

I've found no place to hide

>From a past that sometimes haunts me

But all this pain I've learned

And through the years I've burned

To try to kill what they put inside of me

What have I become?



You weren't around

On the day I walked away

All I needed was a helping hand

And I saw myself walking away from me



You weren't around

On the day I walked away

All I needed was a helping hand

And I saw myself

I saw myself



And no, I can't apologize

For the stupid things I've done

You're looking at a product of a two faced world

And this is what I've become



I need something real

I want something pure

Something pure



You weren't around

On the day I walked away

All I needed was a helping hand

And I lost myself
