[Intro] [staccato synth lead, stuttered vocal chops] Dear Diary, I’m still here Dear Diary, I need you near [Verse 1] I wrote it all in the margins Hands shaking over the page I said I’d keep this between us But I can’t carry this weight I tried, I tried, I really tried To be the one who stays If you can hear me, don’t let go I’m asking you today [Pre-Chorus] It’s too late for pride Too late to play strong I need a voice on the line Before I’m gone too far [Chorus] Dear Diary, hold on Dear Diary, hold on I’m not okay tonight But I’m still here, still trying Dear Diary, hold on Dear Diary, hold on If love can find me now Then pull me back from the edge [Verse 2] To my love, I should’ve spoken To my family, I should’ve called I was smiling through the blackout And I was losing it all I left clues in the dark room Still hoped somebody would see If you’re reading this, come closer Don’t let silence bury me [Pre-Chorus] It’s too late for hiding Too late for “I’m fine” I need your hands in my world Before I disappear inside [Chorus] Dear Diary, hold on Dear Diary, hold on I’m not okay tonight But I’m still here, still trying Dear Diary, hold on Dear Diary, hold on If love can find me now Then pull me back from the edge [Bridge] Call me by my name Say it like you mean it Open up the door Stay until I’m breathing I don’t want a goodbye I want one more minute One more chance to live One more chance to live [Final Chorus] Dear Diary, hold on Dear Diary, hold on I’m not okay tonight But I’m still here, still trying Dear Diary, hold on Dear Diary, hold on If love can find me now Then pull me back from the edge (hold on)
