[Verse 1]
They look away too fast
Like the word might bite
They call it selfish
From the safe side
But pain don't ask
For a nice clean name
It shows up hungry
And it stays the same
[Pre-Chorus]
And I was still a kid
When the floor gave way
A door left open
That I still can't close today
[Chorus]
Don't say "get over it"
Don't say I'm weak
I saw my dad go down
Before I learned to speak
It's a scar in me
It's a scar in me
You don't get to judge
What you never see
[Verse 2]
People love the story
Till it lives in the room
Till your hands won't stop shaking
And your chest is a tomb
Till you're counting reasons
Like coins in the dark
Till hope feels far away
And fear leaves a mark
[Pre-Chorus]
I know that silence
Can sound like shame
But some nights break you
And never say your name
[Chorus]
Don't say "get over it"
Don't say I'm weak
I saw my dad go down
Before I learned to speak
It's a scar in me
It's a scar in me
You don't get to judge
What you never see
[Bridge]
If you ask me now
I will tell you true
I need a hand sometimes
I need someone to
Stay on the line
When the world goes thin
Say my name back
Pull me through again
[Final Chorus]
Don't say "get over it"
Don't say I'm weak
I saw my dad go down
Before I learned to speak
It's a scar in me
It's a scar in me
You don't get to judge
What you never see
It's a scar in me
It's a scar in me
I am still here
Even if it hurts to be
