This world, it shakes,
My knees wobble, right before they buckle.
This world, it shakes,
My smile wavers, right before it falls.
It's make or break,
But feels like I'm always breaking.

You want someone who's gonna fight,
My arsenal is filled with dull blades,
That couldn't cut through butter.
I'm no one's hero.
I'm just a little girl,
Scared the monsters will find her.

I tried to drown it out,
The doubt, the fear.
Smother it in hope, in promise,
But it broke through its bounds,
Jabbed me in the gut.
I'm the one falling under.
