Down In The Dumps

I'll try to fix it before I throw it away I'll try to make it work before I throw it away I'll try to put it back together again before I throw it away I'll try to patch it up before I throw it away I'll try to mend the fences and tears before I throw it away I know what it's like to be thrown away I know what it's like to not be given a second change I know what it's like to pretend like I'm loved I know what it's like to try hard not to cry I know what it's like to tell God you wanna die and God gives you more life I know what it's like to feel like a ophan in your own home I know what it's like to not be the only child and still feel alone I know what it's like to hide skeleton bones I know what it's like to loathe your own flesh and blood I know what it's like to be born inside and raised outside I know what it's like to be thrown overboard sink to the bottom and rise with the tide I know what it's like trying to fit in and get toss aside it burns like salt in the eyes hurts like pink eye and a stye at the same time if it wasn't for sight I go blind got a lot of worn out things I can't think  to throw away I can't think of it as waste
