I confess, it's all true
I'm a mess, what a fool
Now what do I do

I need your help to get up from my knees
I can't seem to see the forest for the trees
And as I wait in my silent misery
All I'm asking is please, forgive me

Now she knows me
Now she knows me
But she wants me to be
Someone I can't be

Still she wants me
She needs me
She wants me
'Cause she loves me

I need your help to get up from my knees
I can't seem to see the forest for the trees
And as I wait in my silent misery
And all I'm asking is please, forgive me

Shattered, now you see inside 'cause I no longer hide
Or fall between the cracks you left behind
Shattered, now you're out of time
You've come this far to be denied

What a shame, I'm to blame
What a shame, I'm to blame

I need your help to get up from my knees
'Cause I can't seem to see the forest for the trees
And as I wait in my silent misery
And all I'm asking is please forgive me

I need your help to get up from my knees
I am the Lorax, I speak for the trees
And as I wait in my silent misery
'Cause all I'm asking is please
