lyrics:
I don't know whose duty it is
To wipe my tears away
Maybe no-one signed up for this
Maybe it's time to pray
It's been a while
since you reared your face
Didn't even notice, you sitting right beside me.
I've been hanging on,
oh you make me blue
Sometimes you've been my friend
but now I'm so confused
I worry too much.
As soon as I wake up.
A constant fear, I'm not doing enough.
I don't wanna know
all the answers
I just wanna
feel okay
And when the world
starts to catch fire
I'm so tired
Can't you see I'm on fire?
I'm on fire.
Where there's a will, there's a way
I'ma figure it out, I'm gonna pray
I'm on fire.
