[Verse 1]
Remember, when you're young
You surrender to the world
Cry when sad or laugh when happy
So simple
We use to play with dolls
Go to the movies, or the mall
I remember how they told me
How they sold me, how I'm lonely

[Chorus]
When the world came crashing down on me
I did not die, I went to sleep
I watch you as I am dreaming
Through the mist, I persist

[Verse 2]
You promised me a cure
Promised a life boat, and I'm sure
You're judgemental, like the others
Pretending
I trusted, let you in
Let you see through my broken skin
Let you tell me, people would love me
Not get sick of me
Get rid of me
[Chorus]
When the world came crashing down on me
I did not die, I went to sleep
I watch you as I am dreaming
“Look away!”, I’m screaming
Oh, when the world came crashing down on me
I did not die, I went to sleep
I watch you as I am dreaming
Through the mist I persist

[Outro]
My scars they remain
My past and my pain
I would tell you all about it
If you’d listen
