A Little Longer

Sometimes grief shows up and you can't shut it out

Sometimes it's too much but you can't put it down

Too heavy to carry, don't know where to start

Just can't see the light for the dark

Oh, I don't need you to fix it

And I don't need to hear "Everything's gonna be alright"

Don't need you to tell me "Hard days make you stronger"

Just sit with me

A little longer

A little longer

Right now, I need more than just another drink

Can't whiskey our way out of everything

When has small talk and answers and cliché advice

Ever made anything feel fine?

Oh, I don't need you to fix it

And I don't need to hear "Everything's gonna be alright"

Don't need you to tell me "Hard days make you stronger"

Just sit with me

A little longer

A little longer

Oh, a little longer

A little longer

The longer you wait, the safer I feel

The longer you stay, the more that I heal

The longer it takes, the more that we learn

The best things can come from the worst

Oh, I don't need you to fix it

'Cause I know one day everything's gonna be alright

Don't need you to tell me "Hard days make you stronger"

Just sit with me

A little longer

A little longer

Oh, a little longer

A little longer
