Sticks and stones may break my bones
But they don’t see what’s on the inside
I protect it with my life
Mama says come on now smile
But what if what if I don’t want to
Can’t always be nice
Daddy says come on be strong
But what if when I cry
I’m stronger than anyone
Sometimes feel like I am falling
Some nights I stay up too late
Running over and over
The same mistakes
Some nights all I want is touch
Others not so much
I can’t pinpoint me
Sometimes feel like I am falling
Only know me by my scars
Sometimes feel like I am floating
Someone catch me before dark
I’ve got me
Under my skin
Learning to love me again
But they don’t see what’s on the inside
I protect it with my life
Mama says come on now smile
But what if what if I don’t want to
Can’t always be nice
Daddy says come on be strong
But what if when I cry
I’m stronger than anyone
Sometimes feel like I am falling
Some nights I stay up too late
Running over and over
The same mistakes
Some nights all I want is touch
Others not so much
I can’t pinpoint me
Sometimes feel like I am falling
Only know me by my scars
Sometimes feel like I am floating
Someone catch me before dark
I’ve got me
Under my skin
Learning to love me again
