歌詞

I kept it sealed

Behind my teeth

A paper prayer

A folded need

You saw the strain

In my face

But I stayed still

In my place

I knew your hand

Was reaching near

I let it pass

I held my fear

The help I never asked

The help I never asked

I needed saving

I wanted less

The help I never asked

The help I never asked

You came so close

I missed the rest

I carried weight

Like it was mine

Bruised quiet hours

One by one in line

I said I'm fine

Too many times

And let that lie

Become my spine

If I had bowed

If I had broke

Maybe your kindness

Would have spoke

The help I never asked

The help I never asked

I needed saving

I wanted less

The help I never asked

The help I never asked

You came so close

I missed the rest

Now I can name

What I denied

A shaking door

A locked inside

If you still reach

I'll let you in

This time I won't

Call it sin

The help I never asked

The help I never asked

I needed saving

I wanted less

The help I never asked

The help I never asked

I open my hands

At last, at last
