I wish I could
Help myself.
But every time I try,
I fall down.

I wish you would
See me for me.
But every time you look at me,
You see who you want me to be.

And when the autumn leaves change,
They leave remains.
That's how you treat me.
You found another person to call your home
In your Winter; she's your perfect fireplace for cold.

I just need some support.
That's all I ask for.
I just need shelter.
From the bitter wind that chills to the bone.

Don't make me feel
Like a child.
Desperate for attention,
Can I even get a mention?

I'm so caught up
Feel like a fien.
Don't make me go to rehab,
Cause the doctors, they won't see

That when the autumn leaves change,
They leve remains.
And that's how you treat me.
You found a brand new person to call your home
In your Winter, she's your perfect fireplace for cold.

I just need some support.
That's all I ask for.
I just need shelter.
From the bitter wind that chills to the bone.

Nobody hears me
No matter how loud I scream.
It's like I'm underwater.

And once I reach the surface,
I know that nobody will listen.
They'll only listen if I drown.
They're only up when I'm down.

I just need some support.
That's all I ask for.
I just need shelter.
From the bitter wind that chills to the bone.
