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 hur ting 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
