Honey, do you want to know what I think?

I put my heart on the emotional shelf
Trying to hide away from myself
Every feeling locked inside
Buried deep where no one can find

Walls are rising, brick by brick
Trying hard not to feel so sick
But these memories, they won't let go
They whisper secrets only I know

On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm hiding all my pain, trying to save myself
On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm lost inside the pieces that I couldn't help
On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm breaking down again but I can't ask for help
On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm trying to survive, but I'm stuck with myself

And I'm falling, and I'm falling
Deeper in this lonely well
And I'm breaking, and I'm breaking
Underneath my emotional shelf

Every tear that I never showed
Every fear I never told
Keeps me chained inside my mind
Looking for a way to find

Pieces scattered on the floor
Of a heart that can't take more
I keep pretending I'm okay
But inside, I fade away

On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm hiding all my pain, trying to save myself
On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm lost inside the pieces that I couldn't help
On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm breaking down again but I can't ask for help
On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm trying to survive, but I'm stuck with myself

And I'm falling, and I'm falling
Deeper in this lonely well
And I'm breaking, and I'm breaking
Underneath my emotional shelf

Maybe one day I'll take it down
Face the ghosts that haunt this town
Till then, I'm just holding on
To the shelf where I belong

On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm hiding all my pain, trying to save myself
On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm lost inside the pieces that I couldn't help
On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm breaking down again but I can't ask for help
On my emotional shelf, on my emotional shelf
I'm trying to survive, but I'm stuck with myself

And I'm falling, and I'm falling
Deeper in this lonely well
And I'm breaking, and I'm breaking
Underneath my emotional shelf
