Better If You're You Lyrics

Hey child

Are you lonely?

You seem sad

Are you feeling low?

Hey girl

How're you doing?

What's really going on?

Don't dare wish to be me

Or anybody else

You don't know what they see

I know

I might seem happy

But behind the glow

There's pain

Go slow

Don't give up the faith

'Cause we're all trying to fit in our own shoes

And you can bet it's not easy to be me

Are you feeling down?

Feeling haunted?

You don't put on a smile

Don't you see the skies

There's always a silver lining

And the stars even when it's dark

Don't dare wish to be me

Or anybody else

You don't know where they've been

I know

I might seem happy

But behind the glow

There's pain

Go slow

Don't give up the faith

'Cause we're all trying to fit in our own shoes

And I bet you'll be better if you're you

I know they might seem better

They smile no matter the weather

But you don't know what they have faced

They have made their own mistakes

It don't matter what you're going through

I beg you to hold on

Don't try to be

Anybody else

I know

I might seem happy

But behind the glow

There's pain

Go slow

Don't give up the faith

'Cause we're all trying to fit in our own shoes

And I bet you'll be better if you're you

I know

I might seem happy

But behind the glow

There's pain

Go slow

Don't give up the faith

'Cause we're all trying to fit in our own shoes

And I bet you'll be better if you're you
