Why I Put Myself Last

[Verse] I give my coat when the wind bites deep Keep walking cold while they find their heat I say it's fine when the rain soaks through But inside I’m a flood and I’m sinking too [Prechorus] The mirror shows a man I barely know The cracks are there but they don’t show [Chorus] Why I put myself last Why I let the moments pass Why I carry the weight and hide my pain Why I run to the fire Stand in the rain It’s love I say It’s love [Verse 2] I skip my meal so they all get fed Dreams I had now sleep instead I laugh loud when the silence calls But in my chest I’m building walls [Prechorus] The mirror asks me who I’ve become A shadow chasing the setting sun [Chorus] Why I put myself last Why I let the moments pass Why I carry the weight and hide my pain Why I run to the fire Stand in the rain It’s love I say It’s love
