(Verse 1) I love hard, I give it everything I have Put everybody else first, even when it hurts bad I give too many chances, always let you back in Taking every word to heart, wondering where to begin But the heavy words linger, they're the ones that remain I remember every critique, every echo of the pain (Chorus) And when you start to yell, I just completely shut down I can't find the words, so I don't make a sound An overthinker drowning in the noise in my mind Trying to fix a world that's being unkind So I just build a wall, throw the key away Distance myself from everyone, it’s safer that way (Verse 2) Yeah, life gets tough and I go missing for a while Hiding all the pieces underneath a faded smile Losing myself in the rhythm and the rhyme Because music is the therapy that heals me over time It holds my hand when I pull away from the crowd Making sense of thoughts that are getting too loud (Chorus) 'Cause when you start to yell, I just completely shut down I can't find the words, so I don't make a sound An overthinker drowning in the noise in my mind Trying to fix a world that's being unkind So I just build a wall, throw the key away Distance myself from everyone, it’s safer that way (Outro) Yeah, I love hard... But I'm learning how to stay.
