[Bridge] 2:53-3:21 
N.C.
And so she sat me down and told me that I didn't have to cry
N.C.
Said I didn't need to get down and feel empty inside
N.C.
And told me that she love me for as long as she's alive
N.C.
And well, maybe she's right, cause I hate it when I feel like I'm not me
N.C.
See, I honestly, don't even know why
N.C.
I, I honestly don't even know why


[Chorus] 3:40
    
Trying to keep
