"What can bring me back to life? ... Someone to say 'you're beautiful'."

I lay alone awake at night/ Sorrow fills my eyes/ But I'm not strong enough to cry/ In spite of my disguise/ I'm left with no shoulder/ But everyone wants to lean on me/ I guess I'm their soldier/ Well, who's gonna be mine?/ Who's there to save the hero/ When she's left all alone/ And she's crying out for help?/ Who's there to save the hero/ Who's there to save the girl.../After she saves the world?/ I bottle all my hurt inside/ I guess I'm living a lie/ Inside my mind it's dead or die/ What can bring me back to life?/ A simple word, a gesture/ Someone to say 'you're beautiful'/ Come find this buried treasure/ Rainbows lead to a pot of gold/ I've given too much of myself/ And now it's driving me crazy/ I'm crying out for help/ Sometimes I wish someone would just come here and save me.../ Save me from myself.
