Creeps in This P(r)etty P[l]ace

I spent so many years
Digging for treasure in my skin
Where were you?
Where were you?

No matter what,
You were supposed to save me
Instead of that
We got what we see

I was removed, depressed
It should've been obvious, yeah
I couldn't see my light
Despite all my shine

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?

I'm the same old story with a glossy, new finish
Can't keep the anxiety inside

You're only proud when it looks good on you
(Looks good on you)
You're only proud when it benefits you
(Benefits you)

I'm screaming, but no one can hear me
Because you're all too busy
Talking to yourselves
About how to deal with the "bigger issue"

Did you know
If I wasn't happy
I planned to be dead
By the age of 18?

Save me
I need saving

You're only proud when it looks good on you
(Looks good on you)
You're only proud when it benefits you
(Benefits you)
So don't stop the story here
Keep on fighting, persevere
No one will take a ghost in the absence
Of the flesh that they love the most

I'm crawling out of my skin
And crawling out of the mess I've been
Watch depression drip from my fingers
As I line up my scars
With all of my triggers

Did you know
If I wasn't happy
I planned to be dead
By the age of 18?

Save me
Save me
I need saving
I need saving
