Verse
You’re lying there with the lights turned low
Machines talking louder than you do now
I’d trade my breath if it meant you’d breathe
But I’m just standing here on my knees
They say “stay strong” like I have a choice
Like I can silence this breaking voice
I smile at you like I’m okay
Then fall apart when I walk away
Chorus
I hate to see you hurting
Hate that love can’t fix it all
I would take your pain away
If I only knew how at all
I’m so helpless, so afraid
Watching you fade while I still stay
And All I can do now is pray
To God, to let you stay
Verse 2
Your smile tries to reassure me
Like you’re the one protecting me
You say “I’m fine,” but I see the fear
In every breath, in every tear
I search your face for something sure
A sign this won’t last much more
But time keeps dragging broken feet
And hope feels paper-thin and weak
Pre-C
If faith is trusting what I can’t see
Why does it feel like it’s breaking me
I believe—but I’m begging still
For a miracle beyond my will
Chorus
I hate to see you hurting
Hate that love can’t fix it all
I would take your pain away
If I only knew how at all
I’m so helpless, so afraid
Watching you fade while I still stay
And All I can do now is pray
To God, to let you stay
Bridge
If You can hear me, don’t look away
I don’t need answers—
I just need you to stay
I’m on my knees, out of control
Just please don’t ever let go,
please hold on
I need you, hold on
Final Chorus
I hate to see you hurting
Hate that love can’t fix it all
I would take your pain away
If I only knew how at all
I’m so helpless, so afraid
Watching you fade while I still stay
And All I can do now is pray
To God, to let you stay
to let you stay
