Don't you carry me, I carry myself
Why do you think of me as someone who's frail?
This will never work if that's how you feel
What makes you believe you're stronger than me?
Well maybe it's you who need someone to carry
To make you feel stronger, to make you feel valid
To escape from yourself, to escape from yourself
Please don't think of me
Please don't think of me
Please don't think of me as someone who's frail
Oh, please don't think of me
Please don't think of me
Please don't think of me as someone who's frail
I worked hard to change how I see myself
I've found the place in me where I can be loved
When you look at me isn't that what you see?
My insecurities are not stronger than me
Because it's so new I can easily tremble
When you hold my hand it is hard to remember
The strength that I found, the strength that I found
Please don't think of me
Please don't think of me
Please don't think of me as someone who's frail
Oh, please don't think of me
Please don't think of me
Please don't think of me as someone who's frail
I walk off the stage, I've sung the last tune
The shame took hold of me now I look for you
This will never work if that's how I feel
On stage I carry all, why can't I carry me?
The audience is cheering, your phone isn't ringing
When my work is over then yours is beginning
Can I let you see, that I need you to carry me
Please don't think of me
Please don't think of me
Please don't think of me as someone who's frail
Oh, please don't think of me
Please don't think of me
Please don't, as someone who's frail
