"Carry Me" lyrics

"Carry Me"

I went to bed fifteen, I woke up twenty-three
And now it all just feels like some kind of crazy, tragic dream
Truth is, I'm way too young to feel as old as I do
It ain't easy being strong when they're all counting on you

So girl, pull yourself together
Don't you dare lose your composure
So much for closure

Where is that little girl, that one I used to be?
I can't remember the last time that I felt young and free
How much can one heart take when it's taking on everything?
I carry the weight of the world, can someone carry me?

Everyone else is dealing, but I've got no time for healing
So I play the part, bottle up every single thing I'm feeling

So girl, pull yourself together
Don't you dare lose your composure
Feels like it's all on my shoulders

Where is that little girl, that one I used to be?
I can't remember the last time that I felt young and free
How much can one heart take when it's taking on everything?
I carry the weight of the world, can someone carry me?
Oh, can someone carry me?

I miss that little girl, the one I used to be
Maybe that little girl is still somewhere inside of me
How much can one heart take when it's taking on everything?
I carry the weight of the world, can someone carry me?

Jesus, can You carry me?
I need You to carry me
