Listen

Please don't budge

When I push away

I know I'm hard to handle

But I just want you to stay

I only yell so you'll hear me

But you don't hear a word I say

When I don't let it out

When fear gets in my way

Chorus: I'm not very articulate

I can't express how I feel

But I hope you understand

All I try to conceal

Is because I'm afraid

Of what you might find

In the depths of my soul

What I can't leave behind

In my mind I'm still fighting

My past, present, and future

I don't need you to fix it

I just need you to be there

To help hold me together

While I pick up the pieces

And to drown out my fears

Since my mind never ceases... chorus

I'll try not to push

Because you push even harder

I'll push you too far

But you'll push even farther

Don't give up on me now

I can't do it alone

I want you to stay

Until my demons are gone
