[Lyric] 18 (Savannah Luyk)

I'm trying to be better
I need to make you proud
But all I feel is anger
It wants to come out
I can barely breathe
I'm suffocating
You're not there when I speak
Or in my dreams

When I take a step
I fall back two more
With my heart racing faster
I just want to feel free
But I've been dragged down before
And washed my sin again
Still nothing's changed
Oh lord
Show me the way

Everybody thinks that I'm happy
Oh how smiles hide
What I'm feeling on the inside
I'm not the perfect daughter
And that's all they'll ever see
Why can't I be happy
Like I was before
I'm down
On my knees
Hoping
You'll see me
Praying
That you still care

I know I've thrown you away
And wasted my days
Trying to fit in
You say this world has nothing for me
And I don't know anymore
Oh lord
Show me the way

If you truly love me
What do you say
Show me the way
