Cross My Heart

I cant sleep I cant eat
If i give them what they want then
will they just let me be
who i am im not like them
im sick of nodding my head at the things that i cant stand
this is it
all my friends
ive tried so hard but i can not pretend

cross my heart
hope to make it out alive
their helping hands look more like suicide
if i dont make it out remember that i tried
cross my heart
hope to breath this time

day by day night by night
i sat alone with pen and page
trying to do whats right
god i pray
shed some light
cause if i burn out i want to burn out bright

cross my heart
hope to make it out alive
their helping hands look more like suicide
if i dont make it out remember that i tried
cross my heart
hope to breath this time

you make all things new
no one needs you like i do
you know i do

oh you make all things new
no one needs you like i do
i need you

cross my heart
hope to make it out alive
their helping hands look more like suicide
if i dont make it out remember that i tried
cross my heart
hope to breath this time

cross my heart
hope to make it out alive
their helping hands look more like suicide
if i dont make it out remember that i tried
cross my heart
hope to breath this time
