[Verse 1]
Muffled voices through the wall
Slurred words cut like broken glass
I count the cracks up on the ceiling
Till the shadows finally pass
Hands on my ears
But I still hear
Every promise crashing down
They say my name like it's a burden
Like I'm just one more letdown
[Chorus]
I'm trying my best
But it’s never enough
Every breath feels like begging for love
I fold into the dark at night
Crying quiet so they don’t fight
If being perfect is the price of peace
Guess I’m the reason they don’t sleep
Tell me
Am I really that flawed?
Or just a kid taking blame for it all
[Verse 2]
Dinner plates and accusations
Silent stares across the room
I learn to laugh at the right moments
Hide the panic
Hide the truth
Report cards on the refrigerator
Still their glasses hit too hard
I wear their anger like a sweater
Too big
Too heavy for my heart
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
What if I’m not broken?
What if they’re just lost?
What if all this weight I’m carrying
Was never really mine to cross?
I’m still that girl behind the door
Holding pieces on the floor
One day I’ll believe the words
“I’m worth a little more”
[Chorus]
