  • I know your life is empty
    And you hate to face this world alone
    So you're searching for an angel
    Someone who can make you whole

    I cannot save you
    I can't even save myself
    So just save yourself

    I know that you've been damaged
    Your soul has suffered such abuse
    But I am not your savior
    I am just as fucked as you (I am just as fucked as you)

    I cannot save you
    I can't even save myself
    So just save yourself

    Please don't take pity on me
    Please don't take pity on me
    Please don't take pity on me
    Please don't take pity on me

    My life has been a nightmare
    My soul is fractured to the bone
    And if I must be lonely
    I think I'd rather be alone (I think I'd rather be alone)

    You cannot save me
    You can't even save yourself

    I cannot save you
    I can't even save myself
    Save yourself
    So just save yourself Writer/s: Andy Kubiszewski, Christopher Hall, James Eric Sellers, Marcus Eliopulos, Walter Flakus

Vietnam all sorts like for example forest.. gump forrest Gump, .self esteem selfless deeds, somebody conferences you just say that to somebody else and then the next day the person you told that to chatted with the person that told you to say what you said and that person tonight everything is that oh my gosh they told you to get lost? I can't believe they would do that that's awful!.. never mind emotional blackmail and extortion and being held hostage human playing flooded scenarios loaded questions Sophie's choice divide and conquerand being mostly emotionally held hostage and... Placing them against me and all I've been trying to do is help and I am a hypocrite hypocrite and the only reason I have asked for advice every single step of the way is of course because I wanted the right thing but I've been conditioned over the years to always keep my card up because no matter what things go back have to rest of the way for advice and followed enough to be thrown back in my face but no matter what ladies and gentlemen boys and girls the struggles real and stop thinking better on struggles and think about others and try to help them and you can only help those that want to be helped and when you catch yourself perpetuating anything crappy
