Ella Red - Sticks and Stones

{Verse 1}
I don't wanna be a burden
It's too often you see me hurting
You know I try to fight
But now it's every night you watch me cry
My mind creates these situations
Out of line with my own expectations
Of things going wrong
And clearly you have been here all along

{Pre-Chorus}
You know the mask I wear, I put it there
To save you from the storm outside, I feel it near

{Chorus}
Sticks and stones been breaking my bones for too long
Poking at my brain to make me feel like something's wrong

{Verse 2}
I went back to therapy
Confront the darkness I can't see
Don't wanna feel this guilt
When the flowers you gave me wilt
I'll grow my own

{Pre-Chorus}
You know the mask I wear, I put it there
To save you from the storm outside, I feel it near

{Chorus}
Sticks and stones been breaking my bones for too long
Poking at my brain to make me feel like something's wrong
Playing hide and seek with a chemical I know is a stranger
They've built themselves a home, these sticks and stones

{Bridge}
Every time I
Every time I
Every time I fall
You remind me
You remind me what I'm fighting for

{Chorus}
Sticks and stones been breaking my bones for too long
Poking at my brain to make me feel like something's wrong
Playing hide and seek with a chemical I know is a stranger
They've built themselves a home, these sticks and stones
They've built themselves a home, these sticks and stones
