lyrics

I've been thinking 'bout the day we first spoke
You got bored and got the hell out of your town
You thought things might just get better
With a change of scenery and of weather
But now you spend most nights thinking you're all alone
Cause your friends are off doing things you don't condone

I say you got me but it's not enough
You think your only option is to cut
Cause the world just won't stop doing you wrong
That's why I sat down to write out this song

If I could be with you tonight
Maybe you would feel alright
I know it's been a shitty year
I would hold your bleeding wrists
Press your forehead to my lips
I swear someday things will be okay

I've been thinking a lot about you
You've been stuck in my mind like a thorn
You know I'm there for you
I'll keep you on shore till
The shit storm is over
But when the clouds break
And the sun shows it's face
You can swim free

You don't need anyone, you're strong enough
You'll be fine, you don't need to cut
Show the world that the time is yours
So I'll sing out your victory chorus

If I cold be with you tonight
Maybe you would feel alright
I know it's been a shitty year
I would hold your bleeding wrists
Press your forehead to my lips
I swear someday things will be okay

And everything's fine

So I'm here with you tonight
I know you feel alright
even though it's been a shitty year
I will hold your scared wrists
Press your fore head to my lips cause today everything's okay

Everything's fine
You'll be just fine
