I think I need help I'm drowning in myself Did someone turn the lights out? Or is it just another dark cloud in my head? 'Cause I'm cut deep, my heart won't beat Deep down low it's killing me If I wanna scratch out yesterday I've got so much I need to say (I've got so much I need to say) I think I need help 'Cause I'm drowning in myself It's sinking in, I can't pretend That I ain't been through hell I think I need help I'm drowning in myself They're preying on my weakness Believe it I'm thinking to myself "no not again" And I won't keep listening When temptation's creeping in If I wanna make it another day I've got so much I need to say (I've got so much I need to say) I think I need help 'Cause I'm drowning in myself It's sinking in, I can't pretend That I ain't been through hell I think I need help I'm drowning in myself (I'm drowning in myself) I think I need help 'Cause I've put myself through hell I think I need help 'Cause I'm drowning in myself It's sinking in, I can't pretend That I ain't been through hell I think I need help I think I need help I think I need help
