My skin was steel, you made it rust And I just can't drink this off Hoping that it gets me through today Carved into my skin, I'm just a fragile little kid I've been branded by this My self-portrait lacks innocenceYou keep saying that I matter But it doesn't make me feel anything Just stop saying that there's next year 'Cause I don't think I'll make it past todayI was holding my own But then your fingers traced the cracks in my bones You said, just open up, kid Then you can make yourself whole againYou keep saying that I matter But it doesn't make me feel anything Just stop saying that there's next year 'Cause I don't think I'll make it past todayIt should have been me Laid out on the concrete I have to leave this body Please, just remember meYou keep saying that I matter But it doesn't make me feel anything (I'm sorry I was born this way) Just stop saying that there's next year 'Cause I don't think I'll make it past today (You won't remember me)My skin was steel, but now its rust I'm giving in, I'm fucking crushed You just couldn't even care at all But maybe I'll get over this And maybe I'll grow up from it But all I keep thinking is it should have been me It should've been me
