It hurts to wear my heart on my sleeve
But I don't know how to be anyone else
It hurts to feel the sand on my toes when
I don't know where to go when
I'm stranded and I need help

How come I lose my way?
I thought I'd be safe if I just stand in line
I guess I never knew my place
I thought that I did, but now it don't feel right

Now here I am all caught up in the middle of it
Just tryna be good, but it's so damn hard
Sometimes I wonder how I got this far
Now here I stand just tryna make sense of the center of it
I wish that I could, but it's so damn hard
Sometimes I wonder how I got this far

It hurts me when I fall on my face
'Cause I hate when I taste defeat
It hurts me when there's nobody home, and I'm feeling alone
I need a minute to breathe

How come I lose my way?
I thought I'd be safe if I just wait it out
But everything stayed the same
And I don't feel too safe right now

Now here I am all caught up in the middle of it
Just tryna be good, but it's so damn hard
Sometimes I wonder how I got this far
Now here I stand just tryna make sense of the center of it
I wish that I could, but it's so damn hard
Sometimes I wonder how I got this far

I know we all make mistakes all of the time
I just hate when it feels like I can't get it right
And yeah I know things will change, but not overnight
It just hurts right now

Now here I am all caught up in the middle of it
Just tryna be good, but it's so damn hard
Sometimes I wonder how I got this far
Now here I stand just tryna make sense of the center of it
I wish that I could, but it's so damn hard
Sometimes I wonder how I got this far
