[Intro]
Those are the breaks
I should just accept it
So many mistakes
And yet I’ve always kept it together
But not now
Another run
Might be over before its begun
So I’ll only be known as this washed up wife
In this sad and miserable joke of a life
If living is the word that does apply
Or maybe I
Should try and live
Before I die

[Verse 1]
I need them to see me
I need them to know I exist
I need to stand up and be counted
Make it be clear I won’t be dismissed
I need to sing out
I must have a voice
Thought I know it could kill me
It isn’t too hard of a choice
I need the reward
For the years I gave up
My beauty restored
As I drink from the cup
Tomorrow will be
The dreams of today
The name on their lips
Is gonna be “[?]”
[Verse 2]
I need them to see me
I need them to see that I’m strong
To show them I know where I’m going instead of just going along
To turn this around
To be found before I disappear
I need them to see me
And be glad that I’m here

[Bridge]
Nobody knows what will happen
No one has a crystal ball
So I worry and wait
Better dead than too late
And to hell with them all
Here’s to one more curtain call

[Verse 3]
I need them to see me
I need to feel something and fast
To be in this moment right now
Before the moment has passed
Its the cruelty of life
We’re denied what we need the most
So before I’m a ghost
I need them to see me
I need them to see me
I need them to see me
