Verse 1
I wake up with a smile I borrowed
From a version of me tomorrow
Tell the world that I’m okay
Even when the cracks won’t fade
I laugh loud, keep it light
Hide the storms behind my eyes
If they knew what silence hears
They’d know me behind the tears
Pre-Chorus
I been strong for way too long
Held my breath, kept moving on
Every heart got souvenirs
Mine are hidden behind the tears
Chorus
Behind the tears, I’m breaking slowly
Still I stand, even lonely
I wear my brave like armor here
But I’m healing behind the tears
Behind the tears, I feel it all
Every rise, every fall
If love finds me through the fears
It’ll meet me behind the tears
Verse 2
I give hope like it’s endless
Even when my own feels fragile
Pouring light into the dark
Trying not to fall apart
I forgive, I let it go
But some pain don’t leave the soul
Every smile got souvenirs
Mine are hidden behind the tears
Pre-Chorus
I been kind when I was tired
Still believed when I was doubted
If you listen, you’ll hear
My truth breathing behind the tears
Chorus
Behind the tears, I’m breaking slowly
Still I stand, even lonely
I wear my brave like armor here
But I’m healing behind the tears
Behind the tears, I feel it all
Every rise, every fall
If love finds me through the fears
It’ll meet me behind the tears
Bridge
One day I won’t have to hide
Won’t apologize for crying
Strength don’t mean I disappear
It just means I stayed right here
Final Chorus
Behind the tears, there’s still hope
Still a heart that learns to cope
Every scar becomes a door
Leading me to something more
Behind the tears, I finally see
All this pain made room for me
I’m not weak, I persevered
I found myself behind the tears
Outro
I’m still here…
Behind the tears 🌧️✨
