I won't try to fix you
I'll let your bowl overfill
Until the cracks are
Covered by your own candy wrappers
And I will tape over it
With my kisses that taste like salty ice cream
I will hold you if the light goes out in your heart
You see your scars as ugly but Ive always seen them as art
They make up the maze of chaos in your eyes
A swirl of all the colors existing in time
Please darling don't hide the pain in your mind

I wish I could make a mirror made from my eyes for you
So you could see you're not broken
You'd learn how to love yourself too
Too
But maybe I can teach you how to

I won't try to numb your pain
Or pretend that you're okay
Let those tears roll down your cheek
I'll catch them, let them flow into the sea
And I
I will listen to your thoughts at night
Even if it breaks my heart and I wish you could borrow my sight
And see yourself in a new light
But until then I'll massage your mind
And try to help with the bruises inside

Your laugh dances with the pain when you try to forget everything
You wore a mask before 2020 covering emotions you thought were isolating
I wish the lyrics stuck in your head was a kinder voice like mine instead
Singing a song to you
A lullaby that's true

I wish I could make a mirror made from my eyes for you
So you could see you're not broken
You'd learn how to love yourself too

I wish I could get inside your mind
And speak all my thoughts of you
So maybe one day you could believe it too
