No One to Tell

Paroles

[Verse 1] I keep opening my phone Then putting it back down There’s a hundred names I know But nobody feels safe right now I could say, “I’m having a bad day” But that wouldn’t even touch it I’m drowning in a kind of pain I don’t know how to put into language Everybody’s got opinions Everybody thinks they know But they don’t feel this pressure Sitting heavy in my soul [Pre-Chorus] And I’m tired of explaining Why every little thing cuts deep I’m tired of pretending That I’m stronger than I feel this week [Chorus] Who do I talk to When I don’t think anybody understands? Who do I reach for When I’m falling apart in my own hands? I feel broken I feel cornered I feel attacked from every side And my heart hurts so damn bad It feels like something’s dying inside I don’t need somebody fixing me I don’t need advice tonight I just need someone to hear me And believe me when I say I’m not alright [Verse 2] I’m scared to say too much ’Cause everything gets misunderstood If I’m quiet, no one notices If I speak, somehow I’m still no good So I swallow every sentence Till they’re burning in my chest And I smile when people ask me Like pretending hurts me less I feel everything so loudly Every word, every cold goodbye People say, “Don’t take it personally” Like I can tell my heart not to cry [Pre-Chorus] And maybe I’m too sensitive Maybe I carry too much weight But knowing that doesn’t stop the pain When I’m lying here awake [Chorus] Who do I talk to When I don’t think anybody understands? Who do I reach for When I’m falling apart in my own hands? I feel broken I feel cornered I feel attacked from every side And my heart hurts so damn bad It feels like something’s dying inside I don’t need somebody fixing me I don’t need advice tonight I just need someone to hear me And believe me when I say I’m not alright [Bridge] My chest is aching My hands are shaking And I’m so tired of saying, “I’m fine” I want to scream “I’m hurting, please Can somebody just stay this time?” Don’t tell me it’ll pass Don’t tell me to be strong Just sit here in the darkness So I don’t have to hurt alone Because right now I feel shattered Like every piece of me is exposed And everybody keeps touching wounds They don’t even know they opened [Breakdown] I’m sad. That’s it. I’m fucking sad. And I’m tired of making it pretty So other people don’t feel bad. My heart hurts. My soul hurts. I don’t know where to put this pain. And I’m terrified that if I finally let it out Nobody’s gonna understand me anyway. [Final Chorus] So who do I talk to When my voice feels too heavy to use? Who do I run to When I already feel bruised? I feel broken I feel unwanted I feel like everything’s too much And I would give anything right now Just to feel somebody’s arms around me once Don’t try to solve me Don’t tell me what I should do Just look at me and say, “I hear you. I’m staying here with you.” [Outro] Because tonight I don’t need answers I don’t need some perfect ending I just don’t want to feel invisible While my heart is breaking. I just want someone to listen. I just want somewhere safe to fall. Because being surrounded by people And feeling like you have no one… Might be the loneliest feeling Of them all.
