Let Me In

Let me in, let me in I’m in the cold again I’m nothing, I’m no one Not deserving of them My heart is breaking, my eyes so sting Why won't you let me in Was it my hair, did I do it wrong Was it the way I sung my song Why do you shutter when you look at me Is it because I'm not pretty I'll buy new clothes, I'll die my hair Please let me in I'm cold out here My mind is blank, my body frail I'll give you gifts, I will, I will Don't turn your back, don't walk away I'm pleading, I'm begging Please! won't you stay I'm in a daze and completely lost I want back in no matter what the cost The final no, black tarnish of shame Farewell to all, alone I am forsaken As I look once more, what I love so much I'd give anything for one last touch Goodbye at last as I fade away I will not bother you one more day Let me in, let me in I'm in the cold again
