I Heard You're Worried About Me

I heard you’re worried about me
And rightfully so
I’ve been strangling myself to stop
The words dead in my throat
‘Cause it’s not my place
To talk about the hurt that I’ll impose

I smile softly
Nod my head
And let you know

I’m okay, don’t you mind
Life’s been great, I’m just tired
Though my eyes can barely hide
That there’s no fire

See I’m okay, besides the truth
No I can’t escape my fleeting youth
What’s a broken voice like mine got left to prove?

I’ve been a little distracted
To no one’s fault but my own
I guess I’m scared I can’t compare
Or measure up to my heroes

I’m okay, don’t you mind
Life’s been great, I’m just tired
Though my eyes can barely hide
That there’s no fire

See I’m okay, besides the truth
No I can’t escape my fleeting youth
What’s a broken voice like mine got left to prove?
Is there a broken voice in you?

And in this voice of mine
Some hope, more harm
Ever opposing sides
Thought it would heal if I stayed quiet
I’m sorry we haven’t spoken in a while

I’m okay, don’t you mind
Life’s been great, I’m just tired
Though my eyes can barely hide
That there’s no fire
See I’m okay, besides the truth
I can’t escape my fleeting youth

What’s a broken voice like mine got left to prove?
What’s a broken voice like mine got left to prove?
What’s a broken voice
Is there a broken?
