Still Here

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

You said, "Come over"

So I'm standing in your kitchen at two AM

You're talking about your family

I'm pretending that I'm listening again

'Cause all week I've been waiting

For some switch inside my head

To finally flip

I got everything I wanted

So why does it feel like this?

Pre-Chorus

You look at me like I'm worth saving

So why can't I save myself?

Chorus

Why am I still here?

Still carrying all this weight

You kiss me like you mean it

But nothing in me changes

I thought if somebody loved me

The way you do

I'd wake up different

So why am I still here?

Verse 2

I stopped writing sad songs

Started sleeping through the night

Started telling all my friends

That maybe things were finally alright

But every mirror in this city

Still knows exactly what to say

And every bad thought I buried

Finds a brand new way to stay

Pre-Chorus

You're doing everything right

And somehow that's the worst part

Chorus

Why am I still here?

Still carrying all this weight

You hold me when I'm falling

But I keep falling anyway

I thought if somebody loved me

The way you do

I'd wake up different

So why am I still here?

Bridge

Maybe I was looking at you

Like a doorway

Like a shortcut

Like a cure

Maybe I kept putting all my hope

In your hands

And asking them to do

What they were never made for

'Cause you're not the reason I'm hurting

But you're not the reason it stops

And I hate that

God, I hate that

Final Chorus

Why am I still here?

Still carrying all this weight

Still waiting for a miracle

That never came

You love me like a movie

Like a dream come true

And I wish that was enough

I really wish it was

But I'm still here

Still learning how to live

With all the things

Your love can't fix

And that's the truth

I'm still here
