"Let me see those hands if you're frightened of yourself
Let me see those hands if you've been fighting mental health
Let me see those hands if you got scars that no one sees
Let me see those hands if you ever felt incomplete

You haven't been yourself for months and nobody noticed once
But I've noticed through all those layers you've been wearing in the sun
I know you're tryna hide all the things that you have done
All the cuts and all the blood you keep harming cos you're numb
And if your scar reopens can I hold you until it closes?
You haven't been yourself for years and no one even noticed
I know when you get distant that's when you need someone closest
And I know you're feeling homesick cos you don't know where your home is

Let me see those hands if you're frightened of yourself
Let me see those hands if you've been fighting mental health
Let me see those hands if you got scars that no one sees
Let me see those hands if you ever felt incomplete
Let me see those hands if you're frightened of yourself
Let me see those hands if you've been fighting mental health
Let me see those hands if you got scars that no one sees
Let me see those hands if you ever feel incomplete

I know you feel like you're invisible
That's why your mental health turned physical
I just wanna say I'm sorry
You got scars all on your body
And they treat you like a criminal
I know you're craving love it's like you grew up in an orphanage
I know it stings every single time the water hits
It's 4 am and no one knows the pain you're dealing with
I used to be the same so trust me you can beat this kid
I know that I'm not perfect. I'm damaged on the surface
Scars all on my legs and there deeper in person
From a kid I was a burden I just wanted someone to love me
I just needed you to tell me I wasn't ugly
Damn

So who do you turn into when the sun goes down and lights are off?
Tell me what you're frightened of and tell me what you're running from
Who do you turn into when the moon is out and stars align?
Tell me how you pass the time and tell me how you ease your mind
Cos when you're out in public no one even knows you're suffering
Wearing all those layers with a smile but you're just fronting
You always hurt yourself but you would never hurt the others?
I know you're feeling grey but I see all of your true colours

Let me see those hands if you're frightened of yourself
Let me see those hands if you've been fighting mental health
Let me see those hands if you got scars that no one sees
Let me see those hands if you ever felt incomplete
Let me see those hands if you're frightened of yourself
Let me see those hands if you've been fighting mental health
Let me see those hands if you got scars that no one sees
Let me see those hands if you ever feel incomplete

I know you grab a blade when you feel like you're a burden
I know you're suffering bad but that don't make you a bad person
You wanna be understood but no one ever understands
That's why I make this music to help people raise their hands

So let me see those hands if you're frightened of yourself
Let me see those hands if you been fighting mental health
Let me see those hands if you've got scars that no one sees
Let me see those hands if you ever felt incomplete"
