Step On Me

Verse 1

Knock on the door and I jump to my feet

Boss on the corner with that look again

Week at my desk and it's all on repeat

Every mistake getting counted as sin

Pre-Chorus

One more word and I might just break

No one asks if I'm okay

Chorus

I wish they understood my heart

Read the words I can't say aloud

A little kindness goes so far

When I'm buried underneath the crowd

I wish they understood my ways

Then maybe we could find a cure

Give me somebody on my side

We could solve it all

Not just step on me

Not just step on me

Verse 2

Home is a mess and the dishes are piled

Teacher already wrote my name in red

Door swings shut and I'm done with the trial

Curled on the floor with the words unsaid

Pre-Chorus

One more task and I might just crack

Does anybody have my back

Chorus

I wish they understood my heart

Read the words I can't say aloud

A little kindness goes so far

When I'm buried underneath the crowd

I wish they understood my ways

Then maybe we could find a cure

Give me somebody on my side

We could solve it all

Not just step on me

Bridge

We could talk it through

We could find the way

Hands on the table

No one has to pay

We could take the time

We could mend the seams

Why does every problem

End up torn at the seams

Chorus

I wish they understood my heart

Read the words I can't say aloud

A little kindness goes so far

When I'm buried underneath the crowd

I wish they understood my ways

Then maybe we could find a cure

Give me somebody on my side

We could solve it all

Not just step on me
