Mmm
Ba-ba-ba-ba-ba, ah-uh, uh
I can see you're standing on the edge
Your legs step on the ledge of life's afflictions, mm
I know you're a master of disguise, you are
Underneath that soft and gentle smile you put on this morning
You give when you have little left to give
You ballroom dance with hollow how-are-yous
How-are-yous (how-are-yous)
Your body aches from marching up your mountains, ah
But you always keep pushing on
You always keep pushing on (always keep pushing on)
I know life can be a bitch, so cold and mundane
And I'm thinking of you, dear, I hope you're okay, ayy
Maybe there's a hole you're hiding somewhere
And you hide it so well, you do, I must say
But I, I, I know you're hurting
And deep down there, something's burning
If you need two more arms to hold these burdens
I'm here
I said a prayer for you, I hope it's working
Please, my dear, don't stop believing in miracles
Oh, oh, no
You'll always find some kind words for a stranger
I wish that you could find some for yourself, yeah
You claw yourself apart in private moments
And all the bruises you put plasters on
While life has dealt another losing hand
You bite your tongue and tense your thighs to stand
You know that you can't be so strong alone all the time
So please stop trying to be so strong all alone, all alone
You don't have to do this all alone
Even though I know, I know, I know you're hurting
I know that deep down there, something's burning
I know if you need two more arms to hold these burdens
I'm here
I said a prayer for you, I hope it's working
Please, my dear, don't stop believing in miracles
(Oh, oh, no)
I know it's hurting
It's just six thirty
I know it's hurting
Oh, I pray the Lord have mercy
I know He's working
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
I know, I know, I know, I know it's hurting
It's just gone Thursday
Ain't this some damn feeling?
And all of us just looking for some meaning
And while we wait for
For the sweeter days to find us
Sha-sha-sha-sha-sha-shake off the devil's best lurking
And close your eyes and let this music go through your heart
(Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo)
Stay with me now
Stay with me now, oh, oh, oh
Oh, yeah
Said I know it's hurting, I know it's hurting
I know it's hurting, ooh
Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, ooh
I know it's hurting
I know it's hurting
