Lyrics to, “Weak Sometimes”:
V1
You’re put to together, you’re so well & put together
That even on your tragic days, you seem fine
You try so hard, to hide that there’s a fight inside
But I can see it in your eyes, that you seem fine
Chorus
Who ever said, it was wrong to be weak sometimes,
To cry yourself to sleep, & wake up with your tears barely dry
You might feel like you’re dying, that the end is no where in sight
Who ever said, it was wrong to be weak sometimes
V2
You say that pain just gets in the way
Just let it sit, it’ll dissipate
You say that no one’s had a better day,
By dealing with their shame.
