Lights Up

Hey, look, mum, I made it, do you think they know I hate it?
Sometimes I need a friend, sometimes I can't pretend
I give up, giving up, hate to say that it's a lot, but it's a lot
I'm lost and I'm raw and you want me to give you more

But the cracks have started to show
Each direction is the wrong way to go
Feels so heavy but it's mine to hold
It's so heavy but it's mine to hold

The show must go on
I'm asleep when I wake up
Can you cover my heart with makeup?
The show must go on
Always there when the lights come up
But when the lights go off you're gone

So young but I feel so old
Always trying to change who I am inside
I'm weak but my skin looks strong
Where the fuck do I belong?
I don't know who to call so I run till I fall
Oh, I don't know how to stop when it's all my fault

And the cracks have started to show
Each direction is the wrong way to go
Feels so heavy but it's mine to hold
It's so heavy but it's mine to hold

The show must go on
Always there when the lights go up
The show must go on
When the lights come up you're gone
