Once upon, long ago, that's how these stories go
I was just a little girl, believing that's how it works
But time is our enemy, revealing the reality
The blinders come off, now you're jaded
And life's not the same, and you're changing
Can somebody save me?
I'm lost and I'm empty
Looking down the barrel of self-doubt and anxiety
I wanna die quickly and hopefully happy
My grandma says I've lived a full life and I'm ready
But if somebody saved me
Maybe I'd believe that life is worth living
Moving fast, it won't last
I can't keep doing this
Twelve years of full speed ahead
Haven't I reached the end?
What if it doesn't get better like they said?
Their lies have worn off and I'm caged in
That little girls dreams have all faded
Can somebody save me?
I'm lost and I'm empty
Looking down the barrel of self-doubt and anxiety
I wanna die quickly and hopefully happy
My grandma says I've lived a full life and I'm ready
But if somebody saved me
Maybe I'd believe that life is worth living
Is there somebody?
(They told everybody)
Is there anybody?
(In every story)
I need somebody
(That there'd be somebody)
Is there anybody?
If somebody saved me, I think I'd be happy
I'd run down the road to them just like a movie
But that's not my story, I'm tired and lonely
I've started a thousand times but can't find an ending
'Cause nobody saves me
Can somebody save me?
I'm cold and I'm heavy
Staring in the mirror at my own worst enemy
We're gonna die quickly and find out how really
Messed up we've made ourselves
To miss our own story
But if somebody saved me
Maybe that somebody ends up being me
