My Turn

[Verse 1]

Always the one who listens

Never the one who's heard

I pour myself out till I'm hollow

Empty of every word

Worn thin from holding everyone

Who never held me back

My hands are tired from reaching out

For something they can't catch

[Pre-Chorus]

So when the night gets quiet

And the sky starts to crack

I look up at heaven's flicker

And whisper what I lack

[Chorus]

When's it ever gonna be my turn

To be the one they worry for

When's it ever gonna be my turn

To be the one they take care of

I'm broken

I'm broken and I'm showing it

Piece by piece

By piece

[Verse 2]

Got bruises underneath my skin

Scars that won't stay concealed

Every crack's a little window

To something I can't heal

I used to hide the damage

Now I let the light come through

I see the shooting star above

And I know just what to do

[Pre-Chorus]

I don't need the whole wide world

Just one steady hand

Someone who won't run away

When they see who I am

[Chorus]

When's it ever gonna be my turn

To be the one they worry for

When's it ever gonna be my turn

To be the one they take care of

I'm broken

I'm broken and I'm showing it

Piece by piece

By piece

[Bridge]

Wish I had a man who loves me

Like I love the morning light

Wish he'd see me at my lowest

And still swear he'll stay the night

Unconditional

Through the fire

Through the flood

Through it all

He'd hold me

Even when I fall

Even when I fall

[Chorus]

When's it ever gonna be my turn

To be the one they worry for

When's it ever gonna be my turn

To be the one they take care of

I'm broken

I'm broken and I'm showing it

Piece by piece

By piece

[Outro]

Piece by piece

By piece

Mm

Mmm
