Lyrics
[Intro — Clean / Distant]
I learned to carry everyone
Before I learned to carry myself.
Now I’m holding up their world
While mine is falling apart.
[Verse 1 — Clean → Screamed]
They come to me when everything is breaking,
I know the words to keep their hearts from caving.
I tell them, “Stay, tomorrow might be different,”
While somewhere deep inside, I struggle to believe it.
I wipe their tears with trembling hands,
Tell them they’re stronger than they understand.
Then I turn away so nobody sees
The same damn darkness swallowing me.
[Pre-Chorus]
How can I be their shelter
When I’m drowning in the rain?
How can I carry their hearts
When I can barely carry my name?
[Chorus — Huge Clean Vocals]
WHO HOLDS ME
WHEN I’M HOLDING EVERYONE?
Who catches me
When all my strength is gone?
I’m screaming from the bottom
Of a hole without a light,
Still reaching up to save them
While I’m fighting for my life.
I would give them everything—
Every breath inside my chest.
But I’m learning I can’t save the ones I love
If there’s nothing of me left.
[Verse 2 — Screamed]
I became the dependable one,
The steady hands, the loaded gun
Firing at every monster
That came hunting those I love.
But when those monsters came for me,
I buried every fucking scream.
“You’re the strong one—don’t you break.”
So I learned to suffer silently.
[Clean Interlude]
But strength was never silence.
And love was never meant
To demand that I destroy myself
Just to keep everyone else intact.
[Pre-Breakdown — Building]
There’s a hand reaching from this darkness…
For once—
I THINK IT NEEDS TO BE MINE.
[Breakdown — Screamed]
I’VE DUG MY NAILS
INTO THE WALLS OF THIS GRAVE!
IF NO ONE’S COMING—
I’LL CLAW MY OWN WAY!
INCH BY INCH!
BREATH BY BREATH!
I’M NOT FUCKING FINISHED YET!
I’LL LOVE THEM!
I’LL PROTECT THEM!
BUT I WON’T DIE INSIDE
TO PROVE THAT I CARE!
[Bridge — Emotional Clean Vocals]
To everyone I’ve carried—
Forgive me when my arms get tired.
Forgive me when I need a hand.
I spent so long becoming your light
I forgot I was allowed to need one too.
I still love you.
I’m still beside you.
I’m just trying to find
My way back to myself.
[Final Chorus — Clean + Screamed Layers]
WHO HOLDS ME
WHEN I’M HOLDING EVERYONE?
Maybe I don’t have to
Do this all alone.
I’m climbing from the bottom,
Even if my hands still shake.
And every inch toward daylight
Is another choice I make.
I can love with everything I have
Without giving my last breath.
Because I finally understand—
SAVING MYSELF
DOESN’T MEAN
I LOVE THEM ANY LESS.
[Outro — Whispered / Clean]
I’ll still answer when you call.
I’ll still stand beside you.
But tonight…
I’m saving some strength
for me.
