Sweeter

[Verse 1]
I feel guilty
For not holding the weight of the world
But I can't control
What little I hold
I see the sky darkening
As your hands try to tighten around
The base of my neck
I'm losing my breath

[Pre-Chorus]
Bit by bit
You made your way
Made me remember there's nothing to say
You're in control now
And I can't get up
I'm struggling to keep you from catchin' my bluff

[Chorus]
You make me feel sweeter
Like I'm no longer a burden
But it makes me feel weaker when you hold me
I like that you put me first
Like it's me who was hurting
I know that the truth hurts
But it washes over me

[Verse 2]
If I keep on moving
I won't have time to fall apart
But I can't control what I didn't start
I see distant hands reaching
They're grasping at straws
They struggle for air
I sit still and stare

[Chorus]
You make me feel sweeter
Like I'm no longer a burden
But it makes me feel weaker when you hold me
I like that you put me first
Like it's me who was hurting
I know that the truth hurts
But it washes over me

[Outro]
You make me feel sweeter
Like I'm no longer a burden
But it makes me feel weaker when you hold me
I like that you put me first
Like it's me who was hurting
I know that the truth hurts
But it washes over me
