Summer Stained

(album: Paradise - 2017)

I shed my skin, summer stained and temporary
It's what it is, unpack my head on sheets well spread call it a good read
Can't be by myself, craving attention from these fading dreams
But as you take my photo I'm grateful but I am not worthy, oh no

I cannot see past my two front teeth
When a smile is all you ask of me

Validate me or I'll give in
I'm on the edge and I'm losing grip
Can you save my life
Woah oh oh woah oh oh
So validate me or I'll give in
I'm on the edge and I'm losing grip
Show me how to love and not fall apart
Woah oh oh woah oh oh

It's getting so late, I can't sleep anyway I want the lights on
Now just stay awake and pray I'll feel better when the night's gone
I know I'm hard on myself but if I slip and fall I'll lose my faith in everything
Cuz everything's nothing when you're living out a hollow dream, oh no

I cannot step past my two left feet
When this journey brings me to my knees

Validate me or I'll give in
I'm on the edge and I'm losing grip
Can you save my life
Woah oh oh woah oh oh
So validate me or I'll give in
I'm on the edge and I'm losing grip
Show me how to love and not fall apart
Woah oh oh woah oh oh

"I don't really have any friends at school so when I get home
I get on the internet and it makes me feel less alone"

So validate me or I'll give in
I'm on the edge and I'm losing grip
Can you save my life
Woah oh oh woah oh oh
So validate me or I'll give in
I'm on the edge and I'm losing grip
Show me how to love and not fall apart
Woah oh oh woah oh oh
Show me how to love and not fall apart
