Yeah, I go to church.

Yeah, I pray.

But that doesn't change reality

No matter what they say.

My parents hate me,

I can't quit cutting,

My peers don't see

How deep this pain is running.

I beg God for help

Any kind would do!

But I don't get any help

How about you?

I'm so lost

I don't know what way is down

For a bunch of Christians,

There's a lot of prejudice in my town.

I know God's given up on me.

I have, too.

But I wonder what it would be like,

To be anything but blue.

Have I ever been happy?

I don't recall.

Has anyone ever cared?

No, there's no one at all.

I'm stumbling in this darkness,

Searching for a way

But even as I try,

God seems to fade away.

My faith is gone,

My blood is shed,

If I don't get divine intervention soon,

I'm gonna be dead.
