When I look at myself in the mirror I see a broken soul With no more sense to fight Oh I hate what I see in the mirror Sometimes I feel the need To leave this life behind I know that things go well And I have to be ashamed I know that I'm a fool To think of leaving this game Oh Lord will you help me spell my name All I wish is the strength That gets me up again To write a thousand songs To run the million miles All I want is some self-respect To become my friend Then I can move the mountains I would never climb I know it's just a stage That I'm going through But somehow it'll always Lead me begging to you Oh Lord will you help me spell my name But still I'm hurting the few That I really love I feel like a fool Will they understand Will they try to see That it's so hard to be me I know I'm such a fool To be unhappy now But every single day I feel more lonesome somehow Oh please will you help me Oh please will you help me Oh please will you help me spell my name Oh Lord - will you help me find my way
