I grew up insecure  Afraid of everything  Just wanted to feel something    No confidence  I had no one who believed  That I was anything  Left to find my own    Through the years I've found  A safety in a world  That some my call "destructive"    Bring on the insanity  It feeds this part of me  It helps the parts I'm missing  Forgive what I've done    You weren't around  On the day I walked away  All I needed was a helping hand  And I saw myself walking away from me    So long, so numb inside  I've found no place to hide  >From a past that sometimes haunts me  But all this pain I've learned  And through the years I've burned  To try to kill what they put inside of me  What have I become?    You weren't around  On the day I walked away  All I needed was a helping hand  And I saw myself walking away from me    You weren't around  On the day I walked away  All I needed was a helping hand  And I saw myself  I saw myself    And no, I can't apologize  For the stupid things I've done  You're looking at a product of a two faced world  And this is what I've become    I need something real  I want something pure  Something pure    You weren't around  On the day I walked away  All I needed was a helping hand  And I lost myself
