LYRICS:
[VERSE]
Yeah, knew as soon as I got the call that there was somethin' wrong
I had fell asleep with the TV on
I said, "Hey, you good?", there was a brief pause
Then you said to me, "He's fuckin' gone"
Now my hands are shakin', my mind is racin'
My heart is achin', don't know what to say
So I said the first thing that came to mind
Which was somethin' like, "You're gonna be okay"
"You're gonna be okay?" What a foolish phrase
Like your whole life's not about to change
And your only options are to sit in pain
Or become so numb you can't feel a thing
And the days will change, but they'll feel the same
You'll wanna run away, but you can't escape
Goin' nowhere fast down the interstate
Only say all that 'cause I know the pain
And to feel like you wanna disappear
I hope you know that I'm always here
The sad truth is I can't bring him back, but can lend an ear, so
[HOOK]
You don't have to hurt alone, hurt alone
I can't fix it, but you won't be by yourself
And I know I'll never know, never know
What you've been through, all the messed-up things you've felt
But I can stay down, heavy in the pain now
We don't have to talk if the words don't help
You don't have to hurt alone, hurt alone
I can't fix it, but you won't be by yourself
[VERSE]
Yeah, I used to think, "Damn, I wish I had a fam," until I realized that I had two
There's the one assigned to me out the womb and the one that I got to choose
So know that you're fam to me, and for family, there's not much that I wouldn't do
Been losing your sanity, understandably, and the only way out's to go through
But they say you grow through what you go through
The truth is that I owe you
You were my lifeline in my dark times
Now it's my turn to console you
Even though I know the truth is nothing will
This trauma's gonna take some time to heal
I know the woe of losin' someone close
Still, I'll never know the way you truly feel, damn
But if you need to vent or not be alone in your head
Just name the time and the place, I'll be on my way, I'm not one to just leave you on read
'Cause that's what you do for your friends and people you love
You don't let 'em drown when they wanna give up
And trust me, I know how hard it can be finding someone you can trust, but
[HOOK]
[VERSE]
Don't know if you've ever thought of tryin' therapy
It's helped me find a little clarity
Been learnin' not to care about opinions from people who won't be there when they bury me
I was so desperate, I booked a session
Clicked the first place Google recommended
Someone answered and asked me a couple questions
Told her, "Ma'am, I can't fix this depression"
I don't want attention, wanna run away
Said she couldn't see me 'til the 28th
That was twenty days, was thinkin', "Oh okay"
That's a lotta time when you're about to break
I was about to break, I needed fuckin' help
I couldn't do it all by my-fuckin'-self
Hate the stigma put on my mental health
Society taught me how to hate myself
But I'm still breathin'
Still speakin', heart's still beatin'
Countless nights battlin' with demons
And I'm still here, guess I'm undefeated
And I was thinkin' this could help
Maybe in my story you can find yourself
Hard to understand the hand that you were dealt
You don't owe shit to anyone except yourself
Yeah, except yourself, know he's lookin' down
And just like me, know he's fuckin' proud
Your anxiety is gonna chop you down
Until you start believin' that you let him down
But never let it win, the battle starts within
It's where you go from here and not where you begin
It's a blessin' to call you a friend and to know that you let me in, so
[OUTRO]
You don't have to hurt alone, hurt alone
I can't fix it, but you won't be by yourself
