Help Me, Mom | Demi Lovato

14

"Hi, guys!" I smiled at the crowd and they cheered. "So.. uh.. I don't know if you saw it, but I'm gonna be singing some unreleased songs! For the first one, I would like someone to come and play the piano for me. I don't know if you guys heard of her, I know I haven't. Come on out, Demi!" I joked as Mom walked out giving me a joking death glare. "I mean Mom!" Everyone in the crowd laughed. Mom sat down and started playing the piano.

Thought I found a way
Thought I found a way, yeah (found)
But you never go away (never go away)
So I guess I gotta stay now

Oh, I hope some day I'll make it out of here
Even if it takes all night or a hundred years
Need a place to hide, but I can't find one near
Wanna feel alive, outside I can fight my fear

Isn't it lovely, all alone?
Heart made of glass, my mind of stone
Tear me to pieces, skin to bone
Hello, welcome home

I looked at Mom and gave her a look telling her to sing the next verse because my throat was killing me. I quickly ran backstage and took a drink of water and ran back out onstage.

Walkin' out of town
Lookin' for a better place (lookin' for a better place)
Something's on my mind
Always in my headspace

But I know some day I'll make it out of here
Even if it takes all night or a hundred years
Need a place to hide, but I can't find one near
Wanna feel alive, outside I can fight my fear

Isn't it lovely, all alone?
Heart made of glass, my mind of stone
Tear me to pieces, skin and bone
Hello, welcome home

Woah, yeah
Yeah, ah
Woah, woah
Hello, welcome home

When we finished singing everyone clapped and cheered. I smiled and Mom took a picture on her phone. Mom grabbed the guitar indicating I got to sing the next song.

I'll be lost inside my head
Bad thoughts 'til 4 a.m.
Then I'll try to sleep
And I can't tell anyone
I'm so scared they'll get up and run
So I don't speak

And oh, I miss when we were younger
The days were so much funner
Weren't they?

Oh, we book a new appointment
It's another disappointment
They're all the same, same, same

When the doctor says I'm fine
One at morning, one at night
These pills will help you remember how to smile
But what does he know?
'Cause I feel so alone
And mom and dad both tell me I'm alright
'Cause the doctor said you're fine

My own mind can lie to me
They all say it's anxiety
But I just think it's me

Now I've lost so many years
My pillow's a tissue for my tears
But you never see
And now, I can't even eat my dinner
Mom says I'm getting thinner
Am I?

Oh, we book a new appointment
Yet another disappointment
They're all the same, same, same

When the doctor says I'm fine
One at morning, one at night
These pills will help you remember how to smile
But what does he know?
'Cause I feel so alone
And mom and dad both tell me I'm alright
'Cause the doctor said you're fine
