Hold me Anyway - Daisie

I’m trying To stay Trying Not to run away Can you hold me anyway? Even when I’m scared Hold me anyway? Even when I’m not prepared If I doubt, if I sway If I don’t know what to say Hold me anyway Can you hold me anyway? I’m not always easy I know that I get quiet I pull back Sometimes I say “I’m fine” When I’m not I’ve learned to leave Before I’m left But I’m trying To stay Trying Not to run away Can you hold me anyway? Even when I’m scared Hold me anyway? Even when I’m not prepared If I doubt, if I sway If I don’t know what to say Hold me anyway Can you hold me anyway? I can be distant On bad days I overthink Small things I’ve built defenses Out of old pain But my heart Still wants to sing I don’t need perfect I don’t need safe I just need someone Who stays Can you hold me anyway? Even with my flaws Hold me anyway? Even with my walls If I fall, if I break If I break but don’t admit it Hold me anyway Can you hold me anyway? I am learning To believe I don’t have to earn What I need Can you hold me anyway Not someday — today Hold me anyway Don’t look away If I shake, if I change If I’m still rearranged Can you hold me anyway? Hold me anyway I’m still worth loving Can you hold me anyway?
