Someday (Dear ******) - World Doesn’t Come Apart

She was only a girl
You could have been anything to her
I know you understand me
Feathers in the breeze
A life in pieces on the bedroom floor
Every step she takes
Every thought that breaks
"Why do I hate myself?"

And in the night time
Escape
Trust
Another life

If only...

I know that you're so scared
I know you've got nowhere
To feel like you belong
And I know you feel so all alone
But I'm waiting for you

I know that you're so scared
I know you've got nowhere
To feel like you belong
And I know you feel so all alone
But I'm waiting for you

She will not remember the days
That you tried so hard for her
Though she wishes every day
She could believe in you
Like a mold in her brain
The feeling keeps her away
From all she needs so badly

Years later, she cries at nothing
On the train into the city
Only the sight of another daughter
Smiling unafraid
Without the holes in her brain

If only

If only...

You don't understand
This can't be shed
This can't be molted
Or separated
From blood
It's in this house
It's like air
It's like skin
It's everywhere

I know that you're so scared
I know you've got nowhere
To feel like you belong
And I know you feel so all alone
But I'm waiting for you

I know that you're so scared
I know you've got nowhere
To feel like you belong
And I know you feel so all alone
But I'm waiting for you

I know that you're so scared
I know you've got nowhere
To feel like you belong
And I know you feel so all alone
But I'm waiting for you

But there's no way
To get this message through time
Every day she
Dies a little more inside
And I sit here
Waiting for the guilt to die

I wish I could tell myself
Someday she'd make it out
