when this began
I had nothing to say
and I'd get lost in the nothingness inside of me
I was confused
and I let it all out to find/that I'm
not the only person with these things in mind
inside of me
but all the vacancy the words revealed
is the only real thing that I've got left to feel
nothing to lose
just stuck/hollow and alone
and the fault is my own
and the fault is my own

I wanna heal
I wanna feel
what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I've held so long
[erase all the pain 'til it's gone]
I wanna heal
I wanna feel
like I'm close to something real
I wanna find something I've wanted all along
somewhere I belong

and I've got nothing to say
I can't believe I didn't fall right down on my face
I was confused
looking everywhere/only to find that it's
not the way I had imagined it all in my mind
so what am I
what do I have but negativity
'cause I can't justify the
way everyone is looking at me
nothing to lose
nothing to gain/hollow and alone
and the fault is my own
the fault is my own

I wanna heal
I wanna feel
what I thought was never real
I wanna let go of the pain I've held so long
[erase all the pain 'til it's gone]
I wanna heal
I wanna feel
like I'm close to something real
I wanna find something I've wanted all along
somewhere I belong

I will never know
myself until I do this on my own
and I will never feel
anything else until my wounds are healed
I will never be
anything 'til I break away from me
and I will break away
I'll find myself today

I wanna heal
I wanna feel
what I thought was never real
I want to let go of the pain I've held so long
[erase all the pain 'til it's gone]
I wanna heal
I wanna feel
like I'm close to something real
I want to find something I've wanted all along
somewhere I belong

I wanna heal
I wanna feel like I'm
somewhere I belong (x2)
