Weathered Skin
She still keeps flowers by the stairs
Like her father used to keep there
And her mothers been distant ever since
Every man she's ever loved has made her pay for it with her own blood
They play and prey on her insecurities
And all she ever wanted was to hear them say
I wish someone told you you were loved
But it isn't enough
But it isn't enough
But it isn't enough
It was never enough
He spends his days in discomfort
Ridiculed and tortured
Everyday down these halls gets tougher
And he begins to think his days here are numbered
He's a quiet kid with his face in his books
And all he ever wanted was to hear them say
I wish someone told you you were tough
But it isn't enough
It was never enough
I wish I could take away this pain
I wish I could make your strength remain
Because I understand these thoughts will stay
I just need you to know it's okay
It's okay to feel alone
It's okay to be afraid
You're not the only one in the world who's scared to say
That everyday is a fight
Wanting to end it each night
I'm hoping that you choose to stay
It's okay to not be okay
It's okay
It's okay
I just need you to know it's okay
It's okay to be afraid
It's okay to feel alone
I know these feelings so well
We're fighting through the same hells
Like her father used to keep there
And her mothers been distant ever since
Every man she's ever loved has made her pay for it with her own blood
They play and prey on her insecurities
And all she ever wanted was to hear them say
I wish someone told you you were loved
But it isn't enough
But it isn't enough
But it isn't enough
It was never enough
He spends his days in discomfort
Ridiculed and tortured
Everyday down these halls gets tougher
And he begins to think his days here are numbered
He's a quiet kid with his face in his books
And all he ever wanted was to hear them say
I wish someone told you you were tough
But it isn't enough
It was never enough
I wish I could take away this pain
I wish I could make your strength remain
Because I understand these thoughts will stay
I just need you to know it's okay
It's okay to feel alone
It's okay to be afraid
You're not the only one in the world who's scared to say
That everyday is a fight
Wanting to end it each night
I'm hoping that you choose to stay
It's okay to not be okay
It's okay
It's okay
I just need you to know it's okay
It's okay to be afraid
It's okay to feel alone
I know these feelings so well
We're fighting through the same hells
