Silver Plate

Where’s my silver plate?

You promised it’d take me away

It’s not a cry for attention

I need some help but no one listens

Poor boy lost somewhere

Self-righteous bastard, nobody cares

What’s the cost of buying new friends?

I don’t have much but I’ll give you what I can

A failure, I went back home

I fucking choked as I said I would

Wish my call dropped when we last spoke

I broke down in my room when I heard your voice

Where’s my silver plate?

You promised it’d take me away

It’s not a cry for attention

I feel so alone but no one listens

So if I drink and smoke and sniff

More than I talk

It’s not your fault

But don’t tell me

To pray to God

As if he has a cure for

All this pain I got

If He’s the one who made me

Then I guess he fucked up

Sorry mother, I’m just angry

Fucking hurt, I just want to leave so badly

My child, calm down

It’s really not that bad

I’ll do whatever makes you happy

Just come back

I’m so desperate

I’m such a goddamn mess

It’s not for attention

I promise I’m not lying

I need someone to listen
