When your tears are spent on your last pretense
And your tired eyes refuse to close and sleep in your defense.
When it's in your spine like you've walked for miles
And the only thing you want is just to be still for a while
If your heart wears thin I will hold you up
And I will hide you when it gets too much
I'll be right beside you
I'll be right beside you
When you're overwhelmed and you've lost your breath
When the space between the things you know is blurry nonetheless.
When you try to speak but you make no sound
And the words you want are out of reach but they've never been so loud
If your heart wears thin I will hold you up
And I will hide you when it gets too much
I'll be right beside you
I'll be right beside you
I will stay.
Nobody will break you,
Yeah.
Trust in me, trust in me.
Don't pull away
Trust in me, trust in me.
I'm just trying to keep this together,
Because I could do worse and you could do better
Tears are spent on your last pretense
And your tired eyes refuse to close and sleep in your defense.
If your heart wears thin I will hold you up
And I will hide you when it gets too much
I'll be right beside you
Nobody will break you
If your heart wears thin I will hold you up
And I will hide you when it gets too much
I'll be right beside you
Nobody will break you.

You thought by now, you'd have it figured out. You can't erase the way it pulls when seasons change. It hurts sometimes to find where you begin, but you are perfect porcelain. The slow and simple melody of tears you cannot keep from me. It's alright if you don't know what you need. I'm right here when you need someone to see. It's not 'Speak or forever hold your peace'. It's alright to take time and find where you've been. You are perfect porcelain. The slow and simple melody of tears you cannot keep from me. It's alright if you don't know what you need. Oh, when your heart loses you won't fall to pieces. You'll let those old diseases lie. Oh, and your heart releases. You won't fall to pieces and your breath comes crashing in like perfect porcelain. The slow and simple melody of tears you cannot keep from me. It's alright if you don't know what you need.
