V5

Intro (soft, almost whispered): I’m not hungry… You can have mine… Verse 1: Plate on the table, I push it away Say that I already ate today You don’t notice, and that’s okay I just smile and watch you play Fridge getting empty, lights getting low I don’t let it ever show You ask me why I don’t eat I say ā€œI’m fine,ā€ but I’m weak Chorus: I’ll eat later, don’t worry ā€˜bout me You need it more, I just wanna see You grow strong, you laugh, you smile That makes it all worth my while I’ll go hungry if it keeps you fed Lay awake so you got a bed I’d give you everything I own Just so you never feel alone Verse 2: Counting coins on the kitchen floor Tryna make it stretch a little more You’re asleep, I’m stressing out Fighting tears I can’t let out But in the morning, I play it cool Walk you safely down to school You don’t see the weight I hold You just see someone strong and bold Bridge: If love means giving up my needs Then take it all, take everything I’d rather break than watch you fall I’d lose myself to save it all Outro: Yeah… I’ll eat later… I promise…
