I've been waiting for you to come rescue me...

Many of you know that music is like therapy to me.  It is an incredible escape for me.  I love finding songs that I can envision myself in.  It is like a story written just for me, or just to describe me and how I am feeling.  Some are love songs.  Some are country songs about family.  Some are hard core rap songs (let's face it, a girl's gotta have some street cred) ;)  


There is a song that I have recently fallen in love with.  I feel like it describes me the past few years.  I feel like it describes exactly who I was and everything I no longer want to be.  I picture the girl singing "I've been waiting for you to come rescue me..." not about someone else rescuing me, but me finally taking the time and effort to rescue myself from what I have allowed my life to become.  It is by an artist called Sia.  The song is titled "I'm in here".  I have listed the lyrics below as well as a link to the song on youtube.  


I'm in here, can anybody see me? 
Can anybody help? 

I'm in here, a prisoner of history, 
Can anybody help? 

Can't you hear my call? 
Are you coming to get me now? 
I've been waiting for, 
You to come rescue me, 
I need you to hold, 
All of the sadness I can not, 
Living inside of me. 

I'm in here, I'm trying to tell you something, 
Can anybody help? 

I'm in here, I'm calling out but you can't hear, 
Can anybody help? 

Can't you hear my call? 
Are you coming to get me now? 
I've been waiting for, 
You to come rescue me, 
I need you to hold, 
All of the sadness I can not, 
Living inside of me. 

I'm crying out, I'm breaking down, 
I am fearing it all, 
Stuck inside these walls, 
Tell me there is hope for me 
Is anybody out there listening? 

Can't you hear my call? 
Are you coming to get me now? 
I've been waiting for, 
You to come rescue me, 
I need you to hold, 
All of the sadness I can not, 
Living inside of me. 

Can't you hear my call? 
Are you coming to get me now? 
I've been waiting for, 
You to come rescue me, 
I need you to hold, 
All of the sadness I can not, 
Living inside of me. 

I'm in here, can anybody see me? 
Can anybody help?
