Hold It Together - Mike Shinoda

She said "are you okay?"

And I'm staring into space

It's making her nervous 'cause one thing is certain

I don't have my head on straight

We're trying to get through each week

On two or three hours of sleep

I say to be patient

That we're going to make it

I have to admit that I'm struggling

They say take it slow

But the world keeps spinning

And that I don't control

And so there I go

Trying to act normal

So they won't know that

I'm just trying to hold my shit together

Together darling

I'm just trying to hold my shit together

Together darling

They say that they sympathize

I'm grateful they take the time

But bringing it up at this six year old's birthday

It kinda fucks up my vibe

We end on an awkward note

I make the most awkward joke

Too dark to be funny

I shouldn't have come it'd be weird to go home

And I'm struggling

They say take it slow

But the world keeps spinning

And that I don't control

And so there I go

Trying to act normal

So they won't know that

I'm just trying to hold my shit together

Together darling

I'm just trying to hold my shit together

Together darling

Oh I don't know what else to try

Pretend I'm in control

But I'm just trying to hold my shit together

Together darling

I'm just trying to hold my shit together

Together darling

I'm just trying to hold my shit together

Together darling

Oh I don't know what else to try

Pretend I'm in control

But I'm just trying to hold my shit together

Together darling
