Clare Maguire Emilie
[Verse 1]
She's got curly black hair and her glasses
Don't keep out the rain
Walks from Brooklyn to Manhattan
Her safe space
[Verse 2]
All around people are moving
But something inside says "Stays still
Stand still sweet darling
It ain't over, it ain't over yet"
[Pre-Chorus]
People think they know you
They don't know you Emilie
You don't have to hold it
When you're lonely Emilie
You don't have to hide it
You can show it Emilie
So show it Emilie
[Chorus]
I can see you hurting
But know that there are worse things
You're telling everyone you're okay
But I can see right through the smile on your face
I know it changes
'Cause I've lived in the same faces
I know what it's like not to be okay
But I pray you won't break Emilie
[Post-Chorus]
Emilie, Emilie
I pray you won't break Emilie
[Verse 3]
You've had your heartbreak every summer
Every winter falls apart
Look for love in the wrong places
Doesn't mean your time is up
[Pre-Chorus]
People think they know you
They don't know you Emilie
You don't have to hold it
When you're lonely Emilie
You don't have to hide it
You can show it Emilie
Show it Emilie
[Chorus]
I can see you hurting
But I know that there are worse things
You're telling everyone you're okay
But I can see right through the smile on your face
I know it changes
'Cause I've lived in the same faces
I know what it's like not to be okay
But I pray you won't break Emilie
[Bridge]
Pray you won't break
Emilie, Emilie
I pray you won't break Emilie
[Chorus]
I can see you hurting
But know that there are worse things
You're telling everyone you're okay
But I can see right through the smile on your face
I know it changes
'Cause I've lived in the same faces
I know what it's like not to be okay
But I pray you won't break Emilie
