On the Surface Lyrics by Jo O’Meara

With Love

2021

[Verse 1]
On the surface, I'm alright
On the outside, I know I'll never have to fight it
I just hide it
On the surface, I'm okay
I was broken but found a way to stop the bleeding
Now I'm healing
[Pre-Chorus]
When it all hurt
And nothing was easy
Where were you back then
I was so lost
Under the make-up
I won't go there again
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm gonna stay here
This time I won't break down
Not gonna lay here
I'm gonna make me proud
I'm not going in
Under my skin
'Cause it hurts less
On the surface
[Verse 2]
Am I talking to a stranger
If you knew how many times I'd triеd to reach you
'Cause I needed you
[Pre-Chorus]
And whеn it all hurt
And nothing was easy
Where were you back then
I was so lost
Under the make-up
I won't go back again
[Chorus]
'Cause I'm gonna stay here
This time I won't break down
Not gonna lay here
I'm gonna make me proud
I'm not going in
Under my skin
'Cause it hurts less
On the surface
Yeah
[Chorus]
I'm gonna stay here
This time I won't break down
Not gonna lay here
I'm gonna make me proud
I'm not going in
Under my skin
'Cause it hurts less
On the surface
[Chorus]
I'm gonna stay here
This time I won't break down
Not gonna lay here
I'm gonna make me proud
I'm not going in
Under my skin
'Cause it hurts less
On the surface
