She grabbed my wrists and looked me in the eye
It took everything I had not to cry
She asked me why I'd do this to myself
I couldn't answer so she asked if I'd do it to someone else
Then I hung my head and cried
Because she made me realize
The world is on your shoulders
You have to be the rock for the others
You have to be strong for your sisters and brothers
But baby girl
We all need to cry
Don't ask me why
The world is on your shoulders
That must hurt
So baby girl don't be afraid to cry
Waters' clear
But my wrists are stained
I say I'm happy
But my eyes read pain
You're over reacting
You used to be so happy
What a shame
Oh you finally left your room
That's something you never do
Oh honey that won't fit
Maybe you should go to a therapist?
The world is on your shoulders
You have to be the rock for the others
You have to be strong for your sisters and brothers
But baby girl
We all need to cry
Don't ask me why
The world is on your shoulders
That must hurt
So baby girl don't be afraid to cry
I still fall on my face sometimes
And my wrists are covered in pale lines
I just want you to realize
The world is on your shoulders
You have to be the rock for the others
You have to be strong for your sisters and brothers
But baby girl
We all need to cry
Don't ask me why
The world is on your shoulders
That must hurt
So baby girl don't be afraid to cry
