Carry the Weight

She said "what doesn't kill you leaves you bleeding."
She's cracking at fault lines
She's falling apart
You've still got so much time
So don't give in
We'll fight this thing until the end
I can pick you up
But I can't drag you to your place in this world
So you've got to give it your all
You don't have to live like this
With your perforated skin
And you don't have to sit quietly in the darkness
Raise your voice
Don't be afraid!
This world is cold on the surface
But underneath there is a warmth
And were gonna have to dig deep
When you find comfort in your sadness
And shut the world out
Because you're too afraid of being hurt
Too afraid to be let down
So you lock yourself in your room
And close all the blinds
Because you can't find a reason
At least not this time
To go out and show the world what you're capable of
So you're stuck inside clawing at your own skin
If we could just get up off the floor
Because I know the the heart can withstand this
I understand you don't want to be a burden
But I will carry you as far as I can
