Till It Goes Away

Wake up, it's time for school again

The day's not begun but you already want it to end

And every day, a thousand "Are you okay?s"

Maybe, if you say yes then will it all go away

But could you feel okay

When everything is so damn gray?

But don't let the teardrops tuck you in bed

Tomorrow's gonna be a better day, I swear

Don't let the screaming get into your head

You're stronger than you know, so darling, take my hand

And don't let the fire flicker and fade

Don't let the demons trample where the flowers lay

You know that I love you and you'll be okay

So just stay

I'll hold you till it goes away

(I'll hold you till it goes away)

Wipe your tears up, no need to explain

There's something in your eye and your glasses got wet in the rain

Desperately gasping for air as you silently pray

That maybe one day you'll be free from this pain

But in this battlefield

You know that nothing really goes away

But don't let the teardrops tuck you in bed

Tomorrow's gonna be a better day, I swear

And don't let the screaming get into your head

You're stronger than you know, so darling, take my hand

And don't let the fire flicker and fade

Don't let the demons trample where the flowers lay

You know that I love you and you'll be okay

So just stay

I'll hold you till it goes away
