[Verse 1]
I know that we've been here before
When I build, you take down my walls ’til they fall down
What it takes to break up the silence
I feel small when you're hiding giants
[Pre-Chorus]
I've been fighting little fires
You’ve been hiding little giants
You should know me better
You should know me better
Could you water me instead?
Overflowing, no regrets
You should know me better
And treat me like your treasure
[Chorus]
So, hold my wings, don't (Hold my wings)
Don't let mе fly too close to the sun
Don't make mе fly too close the sun, ooh
Shield my wings, don't
Don't let me fly too close to the sun
Don't make me fly too close to the sun, oh
[Verse 2]
And I don't wanna play these games
It’s like we’re living on different planes
I plant seeds whilst you're growing taller
Ooh, but we did it anyway
I know you wouldn’t do the same for me, yeah
You grow bigger whilst I'm feeling smaller
[Pre-Chorus]
I've been fighting little fires
You've been hiding little giants
You should know me better
You should know me better
You could water me instead
Overflowing with no regrets
You should know me better (Know me better)
And treat me like your treasure
[Chorus]
So, hold my wings, don’t (Hold my wings)
Don't let me fly too close to the sun
Don't make me fly too close the sun, oh, no, no, no
Shield my wings
Don't let me fly too close to the sun
Don't make me fly too close to the sun, oh
[Bridge]
Feel like I might melt away if you don't
Gravity don't feel the same when you won't hold on
Hold on, hold on
Feel like I might melt away if you don't
Gravity don't feel the same when you won't hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
[Spoken Outro]
Reimagine your veil as lessons and lift it from your lips
The world can still be as beautiful as you hoped as a kid
Perhaps, something to believe in is the greatest antidote there is
Even when winter revolves around us, summer is not dead
It hasn't been defeated, the change isn't the end
The next season waits for you to pick up your pen
And write yourself into remembering that life is beautiful
