Nightlight Lyrics by We Three

Dear Paranoia, Sincerely, Me

2020

[Verse 1]
I know you're insecure about what you said and wore
Could you say something real like how you actually feel?
Not what you think they want or what you think they need
'Cause I know you're not so tough, you're actually pretty weak

[Pre-Chorus]
Let's open up here for a change
And tell 'em things you tuck away
And say the things you never say

[Chorus]
Tell 'em that you miss your mom
And tell 'em that you're not that strong
You're sleepin' with the nightlight on
To try and keep your demons gone
And how you're feelin' cold
In the middle of July
The shivers from your soul
They keep you up at night
Tell 'em that you miss your mom
Tell 'em that you're not that strong

[Verse 2]
Are you insecure they'll find out
Why you don't wear shorts when it's hot out
Why you hold back words when you go out
'Cause saying what you felt has never panned out
Like everything you say you think it stands out
But nothings ever changed with a closed mouth

[Pre-Chorus]
Let's open up here for a change
And tell 'em things you tuck away
And say the things you never say
Like what would come out of your mouth
If the sky was falling to the ground
And all that's left was here and now

[Chorus]
Tell 'em that you miss your mom
And tell 'em that you're not that strong
You're sleepin' with a night light on
To try and keep your demons gone
And how you're feelin' cold
In the middle of July
The shivers from your soul
They keep you up at night
Tell 'em that you miss your mom
Tell 'em that you're not that strong

[Bridge]
Are you insecure they'll find out
Why you don't wear shorts when it's hot out
Why you hold back words when you go out, yeah
Cause saying what you felt has never panned out
Like everything you say you think it stands out
But nothings ever changed with a closed mouth

[Pre-Chorus]
Like what would come out of your mouth
If the sky was falling to the ground
And all that's left was here and now

[Chorus]
Tell 'em that you miss your mom
And tell 'em that you're not that strong
You're sleepin' with a night light on
To try and keep your demons gone
And how you're feelin' cold
In the middle of July
The shivers from your soul
They keep you up at night
Tell 'em that you miss your mom
Tell 'em that you're not that strong
