You gave me all your prayers
So I wouldn't feel alone
I'm acting like a player
Becoming to you unknown
Yet I need
I need to tell
Yes, I need
I need to confess
Mama, I'm still okay
Despite this couple of holes
They burned my dreams away
But never got my soul
Yet I need
I need to tell
Yes, I need
I need to confess
That I'll disappear
I just can't live like this
I need to take my life
Into my own hands
That I'll disappear
I just can't live like this
I need to take my life
Into my own hands
And hope someone will cry I'm dead
When you feel no pain
You know your heart is dry
Now I feel no shame
Although I've betrayed your pride
Yet I need
I need to tell
Yes, I need
I need to confess
That I'll disappear
I just can't live like this
I need to take my life
Into my own hands
That I'll disappear
I just can't live like this
I need to take my life
Into my own hands
Mama, I won't
I won't come home
But maybe you will never know
No, mama, I won't
I won't come home
But maybe you will never know
That I'm fine
At least alive
But I just can't tell
Can't tell nor confess
That I'll disappear
I just can't live like this
I need to take my life
Into my own hands
That I'll disappear
I just can't live like this
I need to take my life
Into my own hands
And hope someone will cry I'm dead
