[Verse 1]
I saw your hands shake over coffee
You said the rent was due again
Across the hall, somebody’s mother
Held a hospital bracelet in her hand
We pass each other carrying weather
Small storms nobody else can see
But every wound has weight together
And yours can lean a little on me
[Pre-Chorus]
If the world keeps asking us to disappear
We’ll answer loud enough to reach the ones who hear
[Chorus]
We fight for heavy
For every heart that couldn’t say it out loud
For every kid awake in a borrowed room
Trying not to let the whole thing pull them down
We fight for heavy
Not because the road is ever going to bend
But because your life is more than what it broke
And I’ll stay beside you till the breaking ends
[Verse 2]
There’s a cashier counting minutes
A father sleeping in his car
A friend who jokes through every dinner
So nobody asks how bad things are
I don’t have answers in my pocket
I can’t make every siren cease
But I can sit beside the silence
I can help you carry what you keep
[Pre-Chorus]
If the night puts all its pressure on our chest
We’ll make a door from every hand that doesn’t leave the rest
[Chorus]
We fight for heavy
For every heart that couldn’t say it out loud
For every kid awake in a borrowed room
Trying not to let the whole thing pull them down
We fight for heavy
Not because the road is ever going to bend
But because your life is more than what it broke
And I’ll stay beside you till the breaking ends
[Bridge]
Put your name here
You are not a burden in the doorway
Put your fear here
We can make a little room for all the weight
If you’re still breathing
That is not a small thing, not today
Raise your voice now
There are thousands finding theirs the same way
[Final Chorus]
We fight for heavy
For every heart that’s been abandoned in the crowd
For every soul that learned to disappear
We’ll call them back and say their names out loud
We fight for heavy
With shaking hands and everything we have left
Your life is more than what the world denied
Stay here with me, we’re not finished yet
[Outro]
We’re not finished yet
You don’t have to carry it alone
We’re not finished yet
We’re still here, still bringing each other home
