VERSE 1
mama, help me
somebody save me
i think i'm insane
i feel untame.
mama, help me
somebody save me
am i insane?
am i untame?
mama, help me
they say i'm crazy
but I can feel no pain
my sheets are blood-stained.
mama, help me
they say i'm crazy
say i'm a worthless seed
the flower's just a weed.

CHORUS
and every day i see
i take control of me
i don't know what to do
so i guess i'll follow you.
and every day i wake
i take control of fate
what's my destiny?
is this the end of me?

VERSE 2
mama, help me
they try to break me
i know i'm gonna snap
i need to take a nap.
mama, help me
please try to save me
is it my time?
what was my crime?
mama, help me
you've got to know me
i've never been a fighter
i've always been a writer.
mama, help me
somebody save me
the don't want me
the don't need me.

CHORUS
and every day i wake
i take control of fate
i don't know what to do
so i guess i'll follow you.
and every day i wake
it all seems to be fake
what's my destiny?
what's become of me?

VERSE 3
mama, tell me
she's my encasing
could she be the one?
do ya think she'll try to run?
mama, tell me
she's my escaping
the fuel to me fire
the burn in my desire.
mama, tell me
she's my evading
could she be the one?
do i have a one?
mama, tell me
she's so amazing
am i still a child?
is my love only mild?

CHORUS
and every day i see
i take control of me
i don't know what to do
so i guess i'll follow you.
and every day i wake
her face i cannot shake
what's our destiny?
does SHE LOVE ME?

VERSE 4
mama, help me
i'm getting sleepy
i need to lay my head
but i'm already dead.
mama, help me
somebody save me
i don't know this place
my mind begins to race.
mama, help me
can you hear me?
my eyes begin to haze
i can no longer gaze.
mama, help me
oh please, God, save me
i can see the light
so beautiful and bright.

CHORUS
and every day i've seen
i lose control of me
i think but cannot do
i cannot follow you.
and as my hands quake
i lose control of fate
listen to the machine
the Lord has taken me.
