Help, I have done it again I have been here many times before Hurt myself again today And the worst part is there's no one else to blame Be my friend, hold me Wrap me up, unfold me I am small, and needy Warm me up, and breathe me Ouch, I have lost myself again Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found, Yeah I think that I might break Lost myself again, and I feel unsafe Be my friend, hold me Wrap me up, unfold me I am small, and needy Warm me up, and breathe me Be my friend, hold me Wrap me up, unfold me I am small, and needy Warm me up, and breathe me
