[Verse 1]
I am unfolding
I am not holding on
Shattered in pieces
I am the broken one
If you only knew the chaos inside my head
Wish that I could run but I'm just not ready yet

[Chorus]
Just let me hurt a little longer
I'm in a war with no armour
Need to cry an ocean before I'm stronger
Just let me hurt a little longer
Just let me hurt a little longer

[Verse 2]
Don't need a rescue
Don't want a lifeline
I need to crumble
Cannot save me this time
Used to think that being brave just meant moving on
Now I sink into the pain until it's all gone

[Chorus]
Just let me hurt a little longer
I'm in a war with no armour
Need to cry an ocean before I'm stronger
Just let me hurt a little longer
Just let me hurt a little longer
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh

[Bridge]
Heart is in stitches, I burned all my bridges
I'm at the end of my rope
My stomach is twisted, I can't resist it
Don't know where else to go, so
Just let me hurt a little longer
I'm in a war with no armour

[Chorus]
Just let me hurt a little longer
I'm in a war with no armour
Need to cry an ocean before I'm stronger
Just let me hurt a little longer
Just let me hurt a little longer

[Outro]
Just let me hurt a little longer
