lyrics

soft like coffee creamer and hard like gorilla glue - 2210 - 2010 - 0232 - 0231 - 2100 - 2220

stir some cream into your coffee - now it's soft like you
prop your door up with some boxes - find gorrilla glue
friend it's okay if you need to look another way
friend it's okay if your healing looks so different
friend it's okay if you turned out burned and puffy not
the bun that you expected yeah that's a real real hot oven
friend it's okay if you can't help me today
friend it's okay if you can't leave your house ever
i'm not going to say that being sad is really great
i'm not going to say that you should give up on being a person
i'm not here for that but i know that not everything can change all at once
you thought she was your ally - but then she turned her guns on you
you thought they understood but then you realized that nothing was the same between you two
friend it's okay if you still feel so afraid - friend it's okay if they're feeding you lies still
friend it's okay if you don't feel safe near anybody - friend it's okay if you think you never will
i believe you and i'll learn what you are teaching
just because i didn't see it doesnt mean that its not true
and i hope if you can you can believe me too
friend it's okay if you need some reassurance
i think that you're beautiful and i think that you're magical
i really wouldn't lie to you i really see the best in you
just because you dont see it doesnt mean its not true
and the way that you smiled then has me hoping that you see the best in me too
sometimes it's your grade school email penpal who can understand
sometimes it's your mom and sometimes it feels like nobody can
other people have experienced the same and also many people never have to which can be so reassuring
friend it's okay if you need to look another way
friend it's okay if you healing looks so different
you can forget about it or you can get up in arms - if you want then you can teach us how you look when you're alarmed
do you need a coffee - do you need a hand - friend it's your own story so we'll follow you to understand
maybe i will - maybe i won't really - but you're important to me - i don't think you're silly
wanna hear a silly story or watch movies so so boring wanna go out river dancing feet stuck in the mud
friend it's okay if you understand so different
friend it's okay if your healing looks so different
