Lyrics

Bilingual
Alone and floating drifting aimlessly
Can I not be
Another sailor lost at sea?
They're asking in these bottles sent to me
How can I be free?
How did you find that special key?
Assembling the pieces in my hands
I've come to understand
I'm not a man no
'Cause I'm just words on a screen
Ignored and barely seen
My happiness is fading but I keep on aiding
I'm just words on a screen
Can't hear why I'm saying
I'm screaming out my words but still I can't be heard
Unknowingly they hold to me
A mirror that they cannot see
I chip but I refuse to shatter
They need to know that they still matter
My mind is breaking just like theirs
But I need to show that someone cares
As long as their life's on the line
I cannot choose to give up mine
You're looking for an answer asking "please"
Begging on your knees
To a doctor who's diseased
The change in life it has to start with you
You gotta see it through
I've been looking for it too
But I'm just words on a screen
Ignored and barely seen
My happiness is fading but I keep on aiding
I'm just words on a screen
Can't hear what I'm saying
I'm screaming out my words but still I can't be heard
Each message brings me further
To the fate in which they murmur
Self-Hating, degrading, depression
Draining me each session
But every time I hear them say
They wanna throw their life away
I have to show them it's okay
I need to show them it's okay
If they break I know I'll break too
It's my twisted broken point of view
We'll fix it we'll make it together
But all they see are the letters
But I'm aching I'm bleeding pleading
Forsaking the things that I'm needing
Reminding myself to contain
The drain of the pain in my brain
It's rushing through all of my veins
Detained by the strain of these chains
I hate that it's who I became
I can't let their life be the same
But
I'm just words on a screen
Ignored and barely seen
My happiness is fading but I keep on aiding
I'm just words on a screen
They can't hear why I'm saying
I'm screaming out my words but still I can't be heard
I'm just words on a screen
But maybe I can sew the seam
Thread the needle in-between
I'm just words on a screen
But maybe I can make it seem
Like there's some hope in this bad dream
