Nightlight

I know you're insecure about what you said and wore

Could you say something real like how you actually feel

Not what you think they want or what you think they need

Cause I know you're not so tough, you're actually pretty weak

Let's open up here for a change

And tell em things you tuck away

And say the things you never say

Tell em that you miss your mom

And tell em that you're not that strong

You're sleepin' with the nightlight on

To try and keep your demons gone

And how you're feelin' cold

In the middle of July

The shivers from your soul

They keep you up at night

Tell em that you miss your mom

Tell em that you're not that strong

Are you insecure they'll find out

Why you don't wear shorts when it's hot out

Why you hold back words when you go out

Cause saying what you felt has never panned out

Like everything you say you think it stands out

But nothings ever changed with a closed mouth

Let's open up here for a change

And tell em things you tuck away

And say the things you never say

Like what would come out of your mouth

If the sky was falling to the ground

And all that's left was here and now

Tell em that you miss your mom

And tell em that you're not that strong

You're sleepin' with a night light on

To try and keep your demons gone

And how you're feelin' cold

In the middle of July

The shivers from your soul

They keep you up at night

Tell em that you miss your mom

Tell em that you're not that strong

Like what would come out of your mouth

If the sky was falling to the ground

And all that's left was here and now

Tell em that you miss your mom

And tell em that you're not that strong

You're sleepin' with a night light on

To try and keep your demons gone

And how you're feelin' cold

In the middle of July

The shivers from your soul

They keep you up at night

Tell em that you miss your mom

Tell em that you're not that strong
