Less Heavy
Behind his starry eyes
Is a story no one knows
I put on a mask, put on a show
No time to rest, just go
I've wandered off the path
And no, I'm not prepared
It's getting dark, it's getting cold
And I'm more than just a little scared
Sta-a-a-ay-a-ay with me
Hold my hand coz I'm not ready
La-a-a-ay-a-ay with me
Hold my heart, it feels less heavy
No, I don't wanna talk
I've been talking my whole life
It's getting harder to be what you want me to be
A mother, teacher and a wife
But sleep provides relief
From the constant chatter of my brain
Wash away tears of pain
In the early morning rain
Sta-a-a-ay-a-ay with me
Hold my hand coz I'm not ready
La-a-a-ay-a-ay with me
Hold my heart, it feels less heavy (less heavy)
Swallow all the thrills, they'll make you feel better
Secrets and promises in a spiral-locked letter
Let's hurry slowly, one day at a time
Charlie and Cherry are good friends of mine
But I'm gasping for air, I'm barely treading water
I'm grateful for our son, but don't you wish we had a daughter?
Put down the bottle, back on the shelf
Disconnect from the world and make time for yourself
Sta-a-a-ay-a-ay with me (ooh won't you stay with me)
Hold my hand coz I'm not ready (I'm not ready)
La-a-a-ay-a-ay with me (ho, lay with me)
Hold my heart, it feels less heavy
Is a story no one knows
I put on a mask, put on a show
No time to rest, just go
I've wandered off the path
And no, I'm not prepared
It's getting dark, it's getting cold
And I'm more than just a little scared
Sta-a-a-ay-a-ay with me
Hold my hand coz I'm not ready
La-a-a-ay-a-ay with me
Hold my heart, it feels less heavy
No, I don't wanna talk
I've been talking my whole life
It's getting harder to be what you want me to be
A mother, teacher and a wife
But sleep provides relief
From the constant chatter of my brain
Wash away tears of pain
In the early morning rain
Sta-a-a-ay-a-ay with me
Hold my hand coz I'm not ready
La-a-a-ay-a-ay with me
Hold my heart, it feels less heavy (less heavy)
Swallow all the thrills, they'll make you feel better
Secrets and promises in a spiral-locked letter
Let's hurry slowly, one day at a time
Charlie and Cherry are good friends of mine
But I'm gasping for air, I'm barely treading water
I'm grateful for our son, but don't you wish we had a daughter?
Put down the bottle, back on the shelf
Disconnect from the world and make time for yourself
Sta-a-a-ay-a-ay with me (ooh won't you stay with me)
Hold my hand coz I'm not ready (I'm not ready)
La-a-a-ay-a-ay with me (ho, lay with me)
Hold my heart, it feels less heavy
