V1
You don’t always hear it breaking
Sometimes it goes quiet
One day you’re in the middle
Next day you’re outside it
I kept waiting for a reason
Something I could hold
But silence has a language
And it told
⸻
V2
I learned how to make it softer
Learned how to bend the line
Turn my “no” into a question
Every time
Tried to keep the peace around me
While I slipped away
Didn’t know I was the one
I was asking not to stay
⸻
Chorus
You don’t know the weight you’re carrying
Till your hands give out
You don’t know who’s really with you
Till you hit the ground
Some walk in and out like seasons
Some don’t hear you call
But the ones that feel like grace to you
Stay when you fall
⸻
V3
It all came down like weather
I couldn’t stay inside
Everything I held together
Opened wide
I was somewhere I couldn’t follow
Didn’t trust the ground
Then a voice cut through the shaking
“I’m here right now”
⸻
Chorus
You don’t know the weight you’re carrying
Till your hands give out
You don’t know who’s really with you
Till you hit the ground
Some walk in and out like seasons
Some don’t hear you call
But the ones that feel like grace to you
Stay when you fall
⸻
Bridge
No fixing
No explaining
No turning me around
Just a hand
In the silence
When it all came down
And I felt it
Like something
Coming home
I wasn’t
Alone
⸻
Final Chorus
Now I know the weight I’m carrying
I can set it down
Now I know who’s really with me
When I lose the ground
Some love fades out like echoes
Some never show at all
But the ones that feel like grace to me
Stay when I fall
