I've seen the world on top your shoulders
You lift me up 'cause you know I'm smaller
When this life's a concert I can't see
When I'm black and blue you paint me brighter
And raise me up just like a lighter
Even through the darkest symphony
Tables are turnin'
No, you don't deserve it
But you don't have to run from it no
You know that I need you
I know that you need me too
Let me clear your mind
And if it keeps you up at night
I'll stay up and learn the words to all the songs that you like
So if your eyes are open wide
I can sing you something sweeter than that devil in your mind
And if it still keeps you up at night
I won't hold it against you I'll just hold, hold you tight
If it keeps you up
If it keeps you up
You tеll me that you can't control it
Underneath your skin, it's crawling
Uncеrtain of the strength you keep inside
But I know, for all the times I've fallen on my face
You were there to save me from that place
Even superheroes fall sometimes
Tables are turnin'
No, you don't deserve it
But you don't have to run from it no
You know that I need you
I know that you need me too
Let me clear your mind
And if it keeps you up at night
I'll stay up and learn the words to all the songs that you like
So if your eyes are open wide
I can sing you something sweeter than that devil in your mind
And if it still keeps you up at night
I won't hold it against you I'll just hold, hold you tight
If it keeps you up
If it keeps you up
If it keeps you up
If it keeps you up
And if it keeps you up at night
I'll stay up and learn the words to all the songs that you like
So if your eyes are open wide
I can sing you something sweeter than that devil in your mind
And if it still keeps you up at night
I won't hold it against you I'll just hold, hold you tight
