Jack Colwell - Weak

You say I’m weak
You say I’m small
I’ll never be anything but a punchline
I’m just a lisp 
With flailing wrists
But if I cut them do I not bleed?
Bleed the same blood as you

You play it rough
And make it tough
Expecting me to just take it on the sideline
When I get up
You push me down
Mouthing off in front of the boys
Will be boys

I know why I make you laugh
It’s masking the fear inside you
While I’m making you laugh 
I just know that I’m making you cry too
Every little thing I say and I do

Behind closed doors
Suburban walls
Turn off the noise succumb to the silence
Privately you long to be
Sharing your secrets with me
You’d be free

I know why I make you laugh
It’s masking the fear inside you
While I’m making you laugh 
I just know that I’m making you cry too
Every little thing I say and I do
Cry too
Every little thing I say and I do

When we meet again some day
I will take you in my arms
But for now I understand
I am the vessel for your pain

You say I’m weak
You say I’m small
I’ll never be anything but a punchline
