"Carry It Well" lyrics

"Carry It Well"

Come home, get high
Forget about the time between my highlights
Yeah, I know but I'm fine
It's been a rough time
Poker face, in play
Otherwise it makes me think I'm unsafe
Yeah, I know, it's strange
Wish it wasn't this way

But no one seems to know any better
I designed it that way
I know it seems I have it together, but

Just because I carry it well
Doesn't mean it isn't heavy and I don't need some help
I know I keep it locked down, but all I want now
Is somebody who can tell me how it's gonna turn out
'Cause I thought I'd be doing better by now
I thought I'd be doing better by now
But don't I carry it well?

I'm grateful but impatient, get hateful, but I'm sided
So those who mean the most who get the best of me
And I can't come back home and fight the rest of me
It's best to leave

'Cause no one seems to know any better
And I designed it it that way
I know it seems I have it together, but

Just because I carry it well
Doesn't mean it isn't heavy and I don't need some help
I know I keep it locked down, but all I want now
Is somebody who can tell me how it's gonna turn out
'Cause I thought I'd be doing better by now
I thought I'd be doing better by now
But don't I carry it well?

Don't I carry it well?
'Cause no one seems to know any better

Just because I carry it well
Doesn't mean it isn't heavy and I don't need some help
I know I keep it locked down, but all I want now
Is somebody who can tell me how it's gonna turn out (How it's gonna turn out)
'Cause I thought I'd be doing better by now
I thought I'd be doing better by now
But don't I carry it well?

Don't I carry it well?
'Cause no one seems to know any better

Sam Fischer said of this song released on the 4th of November, 2022, "'Carry It Well' is about saying 'Yeah, I'm fine' when asked if you are, even when you're not. You never know what someone might be going through and I think if the past few years have taught us anything, it's how to mask what we can't describe while feeling intensely what we don't understand. I hope 'Carry It Well' can just let people know they're not alone."
