lyrics:

[verse 1] 
I missed the orange sky, 
’Cause I was busy finding myself back on the path. 
My mother said it happens, so give it a little time. 

Nobody believes me. 
They only see me as a child. 
When one’s hurt, 
They don’t see if it’s right or wrong. 
And I hold back the grudge, 
’Cause I feel so powerless 
Like my ribs are cracking and my lungs are turning grey. 
And I can feel all the way home 
How much I’ve wanted you. 
And I say I’m laughing; 
I don’t take it seriously. 

[chorus] 
But I am hurting. 
My white knuckles are aching. 
The short distance has become long, 
And my visions are blurry. 
And I am asking for somebody’s help. 
The blood is gushing, the arms are folding, 
And I am sweating nonstop. 
The heart’s racing, 
And I am watching 
Them laughing at me. 

[verse 2] 
Nobody wants the forgiveness. 
Their faith is centered with ego’s split words. 
Nobody cares to be obligated, 
’Cause they're busy chasing wealth. 

Everybody sees me 
Like a damaged kid, 
As if I wanted to be hid 
In the bottle of water, 
In the bottle of juice. 
And they can squeeze it once it’s of no use. 
When they’re hurting, with whom do they go? 
Do they cry like I do, 
Or are their hearts made up of stone? 
I wanna know. 
I wanna know. 

[bridge] 
And I am asking for help. 
I am asking for strength. 
I am asking for the last-minute smile. 
I am asking to roll my eyes, 
Pretending to yawn when I am just about to cry. 
All I am asking is ur forgiveness 
I am asking for strength 
One last time 
One last time
