And all around me

       G                    Em
Is everyone but the one I'm wishing for

And he sent me flowers

    Em          G

From a daddy whose daughter¨

Wants to see him again

It's just another birthday

When he would call me, see me

         G                C
I gave myself away to love

But backseat promises fade like a mist

     C                        D
I'm screaming at the midnight air

     Em                G
Everyone hears me but I don't care

            C                    D
My heart's clenched just like a fist

               Em                 G
'Cause, people, I didn't ask for any of this

And I'm not fine

D        Em      C      G    D
I'm not fine

C                  
In the company of strangers

D                     C
In a cold and sterile room

Em
All alone with a child inside me

Em
And I don't know what to do

Am
Jesus, can You hear me

C 
Come and heal my brokenness
