Taking pills to stop the ache in her chest
He's shooting dope to keep control
She's slitting her wrists because she's tired of living
He's having sex to escape the memory of the man that loved him the wrong way
She's drinking to take away memories of her father
And I
I am struggling to keep it together
Watching my heart bleed
Fall apart at the seams
Stitch me back up and I'll hold my head high
Even though I'm dying on the inside
She's run out of her prescription, she's sobbing hard anger
He's out of money for his needles, he's stealing
Her wrists are bleeding too much, she's dying
He's at the doctor's, there's a problem with him
She's is drunk and looks into her dad's eyes again
And I
Fell apart at the store
My hearts bleeding out
But I stitched myself together
Hold my head high
Even though I'm dying on the inside
You're not alone,
No you're not
I know you relate but darling this doesn't have to be your fate
They don't need to tell you how to live your life
Memories you face, hearts they've learned to break,
I know you're dying inside,
Well so am I
I'll stitch myself together,
Keep my head held high
And I'll go to the doctors
And they tell me that I'm not okay
But I will be okay
I will be okay
Look away
Look away from your addictions,
People are bad,
But I'm here
Memories hurt
But I'll stay
