Heroes

I thought I was a danger to society Decided I could trust no one besides me But I know now I don't have to be alone now Took on all the weight from off their shoulders Didn't tell a soul when mine were overworked But now I've learned I just have to make myself heard Everybody says "ask for help, ask for help" And I thought I was too strong for that I didn't tell and then I felt bad Silly me, I couldn't see That all I needed to do Was lean on the people who I've had lean on me too When things got tough, I tried to muscle through it Cus that was how I saw my heroes do it And it worked out But how can I be sure now? Looked into the mirror and I didn't recognize my face So obsessed with being helpful, I forgot I take up space Watched myself turn into nothing Overwhelmed when I feel something Tell myself to just keep running And running Everybody says "ask for help, ask for help" And I thought I was too strong for that I didn't tell and then I felt bad Silly me, I couldn't see That all I needed to do Was lean on the people who I've had lean on me too Isolating myself making myself crazy, find some safety Make myself believe I'm all I got Count the hours, sweet turns sour They don't bother wilted flowers Bury be alive and I keep screaming that I'm fine Until I asked for help It was bad I couldn't see All I needed to do Was lean on the people who I've had lean on me Ask for help, ask for help, ask for help (I thought I was too strong for that) Ask for help, ask for help, ask for help (I didn't wanna feel so bad) Ask for help, ask for help, ask for help (I'm doing everything I can) Ask for help, ask for help, ask for help
