If I try to help you, will you help yourself?
Save Yourself the Sorrow

Don’t look at me right now.
I don’t look my best, at all.
Don’t look at me when I’m pathetic.
Don’t watch and see me fall.

Just turn your back away from me
For I’ll be back again tomorrow.
And then I’ll see me when I am okay
so save yourself the sorrow.

Don’t look at today. Please close your eyes.
I’m racked with madness, anguish. Pain.
Don’t look for you’ll always remember this
And I will never feel the same.

Just turn your back and I’ll be gone
And I’ll be fine again tomorrow.
But don’t look at me when I am like this.
Please save yourself the sorrow.
