What Do You See In Me?

You stand up
You wake up
Paralyzed, terrified in the dead of night
You stand up
You wake up
Paralyzed, terrified

You can try if you'd like, but it's not worth it
Too many times I lied just to force it
You believe in me
But I'll never see
Please don't waste your breath
I've made peace with death
'Cause I know that I'll never be okay
And finding God is such a goddamn cliché

What do you see in me?

With the weight down on your shoulders
You wake up
You wake up
You wake up

Paralyzed, terrified in the dead of night
Your blood's growing colder
But I see the light in you
And I know you'll make it through
Though you feel you're born to lose
Like a rhyme that's overused
Thinkin' some flowers never bloom

'Cause I know just how you feel inside
I know there's hope in the back of your mind
I want you to see
All that you can be
I know you say that you'll never be okay
But giving up is the goddamn cliché

We're only getting older
So wake up
So wake up
Please wake up

And realize you can find how to love your life
I know there's weight on your shoulders
But it's time that you let go
Of the hurt that you hold close
It's time for you to choose
I said it's time for you to choose
To let the flowers bloom

You reminded me that it's all worth it
Now I can breathe in the air and not force it
You believed in me
And you helped me to see
That maybe I'm in too deep
But I'm ready to take the leap
