Carter Lyrics

Carter never thought that getting older

Would mean she had to choose between nothing

And wanting to get used

Beauty modeled after something on a silver screen

She didn't know the steps she'd take to be someone they'd hold to then replace

It's a long way down toughen up so they stick around

They're looking away gotta keep up so they'll stay

The standards ever moving hurry up you're gonna lose 'em

But they say that it's all worth it

It's worth it

It's worth it for the praise

Carter didn't want to move further, but he said that he loved her

And shouldn't that make it okay?

It's a long way down toughen up so he sticks around

And when he's looking away give it all to make him stay

The standards ever moving hurry up you're gonna lose him

But they say that it's all worth it

It's worth it

it's worth it for the praise he gives this is how all love should live

It's the price we pay to keep them happy so they stay

It's all you thought you wanted now those daydreams turn to haunted

But they said that it was worth it

It's worth it

It's worth it for the praise
