nightlight Lyrics

I know you're insecure about what you said and wore

Could you say something real like how you actually feel?

Not what you think they want or what you think they need

'Cause I know you're not so tough, you're actually pretty weak

Let's open up here for a change

And tell 'em things you tuck away

And say the things you never say

Tell 'em that you miss your mom

And tell 'em that you're not that strong

You're sleepin' with the nightlight on

To try and keep your demons gone

And how you're feelin' cold in the middle of July

The shivers from your soul, they keep you up at night

Tell 'em that you miss your mom

And tell 'em that you're not that strong

Are you insecure they'll find out

Why you don't wear shorts when it's hot out?

Why you hold back words when you go out? (Yeah, yeah)

'Cause saying what you felt has never panned out

Like everything you say you think it stands out

But nothing's ever changed with a closed mouth (yeah, yeah)

Let's open up here for a change

And tell 'em things you tuck away

And say the things you never say

Like what would come out of your mouth

If the sky was falling to the ground

And all that's left was here and now

Tell 'em that you miss your mom

And tell 'em that you're not that strong

You're sleepin' with a night light on

To try and keep your demons gone

And how you're feelin' cold in the middle of July

The shivers from your soul, they keep you up at night

Tell 'em that you miss your mom

And tell 'em that you're not that strong

Are you insecure they'll find out

Why you don't wear shorts when it's hot out?

Why you hold back words when you go out? (Yeah, yeah)

'Cause saying what you felt has never panned out

Like everything you say you think it stands out

But nothing's ever changed with a closed mouth (yeah, yeah)

Let's open up here for a change

And tell 'em things you tuck away

And say the things you never say

Like what would come out of your mouth

If the sky was falling to the ground

And all that's left was here and now

Tell 'em that you miss your mom

And tell 'em that you're not that strong

You're sleepin' with a night light on

To try and keep your demons gone

And how you're feelin' cold in the middle of July

The shivers from your soul, they keep you up at night

And tell 'em that you miss your mom

And tell 'em that you're not that strong
