Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wore my school bag like a shield
Too big, too heavy on my back
They laughed when I would flinch and fold
At every word they threw me back
Lunch tray cold in my hands
I sat alone by the vending machine
While everybody else belonged
I felt like I was disappearing
[Pre-Chorus]
And I never found the words
To say, "I'm not okay"
So I kept it all inside
Till it turned to rain
[Chorus]
Nobody sees me
Nobody knows me
I smile and I break
I smile and I break
Hold me together
Don't let me fold under my skin
Don't let me go dark again
[Verse 2]
At home I learned to make no sound
Keep my footsteps on the floor
My mother asked if I was fine
I said, "Yeah, I'm sure"
But the mirror told the truth
With red eyes and a borrowed face
I hid my heart inside my sleeve
And prayed that I could run away
[Pre-Chorus]
And I heard those ugly names
Echo under my breath
Some nights I let the silence
Talk me down to death
[Chorus]
Nobody sees me
Nobody knows me
I smile and I break
I smile and I break
Hold me together
Don't let me fold under my skin
Don't let me go dark again
[Bridge]
If you find me in the dark
Take my hand, don't let it slip
I've been standing at the edge
Of a life I almost missed
And I don't need perfect answers
Just a reason to stay near
Just one voice that says my name
And pulls me out of here
[Chorus]
Nobody sees me
Nobody knows me
I smile and I break
I smile and I break
Hold me together
Don't let me fold under my skin
Don't let me go dark again
[Outro]
I'm still here
I'm still here
A little bruised, but I'm still here
I'm still here
I'm still here
And that has to mean something here
