Pull me out of the Crack I fell in,
Get me out of this Pot-hole I went through.
Help me to escape and start all over,
Or just be like that,




That’s cool too.

Come and save me now before I have to leave,
They do not get me here, I need your rescue.

Help me to leave and star all over,
Or just be like that,




That’s cool too.

I’m sick of all your constant games,
All of the pain you made me go through.
I tire of constant pain,
But you can be like that,




That’s cool too.
