Throw me to the wolves 
Watch them tear my flesh
Watch me still crawl
Healing in scars

Hold me to the flames
Let the fire burn my flesh
Watch me still crawl
Healing in scars

I wish I was special
I wish I was loved
How many times must I escape
Being buried underground
I wish I was loved
I wish I was enough 
Worth a simple friend's smile
A safe home to stay awhile

Drown me in the river
In the freezing waters I'll shiver
Watch me still rise
Healing in lies

Bury me in the dirt
As my soul hurts
Watch me still rise
Healing in lies

I wish I was special
I wish I was loved
How many times must I escape
Being buried underground
I wish I was loved
I wish I was enough 
Worth a simple friend's smile
A safe home to stay awhile

Take me down, but I've found
Myself fighting till I'm back on ground
Everytime 

But, I wish I was special
I wish I was loved
How many times must I escape
Being buried underground
I wish I was loved
I wish I was enough 
Worth a simple friend's smile
A safe home to stay awhile

Chain me to the tree
Whip me till I bleed
Watch me get free
Healing scars within me

Tell me I'm not special
That my face is dreadful
Watch me get free
Healing scars within me

I wish I was special
I wish I was loved
How many times must I escape
Being buried underground
