C                                          G                                 Dm                                        C
Dear God, I'm writing this letter to you. 'Cause I don't have a clue. Can you help me
Sittin' here, simply trying to figure out. What my life's all about. Can you tell me?


  I never wanted to be the person you see. Won't you tell me who I am?
  I always wanted to die but you kept me alive. Please tell me who I am?

 

I lie awake conducting this symphony, that you have gifted to me, but I don't ever sleep
Don't get mad. 'Cause I get weak inside and I start to fall apart. 'Cause I feel nothing


I never wanted to be Some kind of comic relief. Won't you show me who I am?
I've been tortured and scorned since the day that I was born. But I don't know who I am

 

C                                             G                                        C                                
                                     And  I thank you now for everything.
C                                                      G             Dm.                                   
Sorry I'm so frightened about all of this Oh I wish I could give you more.
C                                                G                           Dm                                 C
But all the lights are shining down on me.  And I feel intimidated by it all

 

I never wanted to be the person you see. But thank you
Oh god please tell me now. Are you disappointed are you proud? Haven't I done everything, everything?
I'm so sorry I'm so weak and I've turned into a freak. But I don't know anything, anything!


I've lost all self-esteem a million and everything. And I feel nothing, nothing!
Oh God please tell me now. God please help me now. Cause I feel nothing!


Oh dear God. I'm writing this letter to you. I am coming unglued. Please help me
