Remind me tonight, again
Lord, why was I born?
Remind me again, this night
What is there to love in me?
Remind me why I breathe
I do all that I hate and am weak
Remind me why you won't kill me?
Everything becomes ashes to my touch
As I watch my friends, my brothers, my dad
Turning around and refusing to speak to me
Will you do this to me as well?
Will you abandon me too?
Will you say "no more, I wash my hands of you"
And leave me here to cry?
I can't be happy anymore...
I can't laugh, I can't pretend...
No, I'm not okay here anymore
and I don't think I'll ever be
Was I made to just be alone?
Will you ignore my cries?
Am I a wimp in your sight too
With no reason for me to cry?
Please don't look at me like they do
I just might break and perish if you did
