Intro (Spoken / Soft)
Yeah…
If you’re listening to this
You’re still here
And that matters
⸻
Verse 1
I been feeling like a ghost in a crowded room
Smiling on the outside, breaking in two
Got a phone full of names I don’t wanna use
‘Cause I don’t wanna feel like a bother to you
They say “be strong,” but they don’t say how
They say “it’ll pass,” but it’s heavy right now
I been losing sleep just fighting my head
Trying not to believe the lies it said
That I’m replaceable, easy to lose
That I don’t make a difference no matter what I do
But if I disappear, would they even see?
That question been circling me endlessly
⸻
Pre-Chorus
I don’t need saving
I just need to be heard
I don’t need answers
Just someone’s words
⸻
Chorus (Emotional, singable)
If you think you’re a burden
You’re not alone
If you think no one would notice
You’re wrong
Your voice still matters
Your name still means something
If you’re still breathing
You’re still needed
⸻
Verse 2
I seen people laugh, I seen people fall
Seen strong ones crack trying to stand tall
Seen pain get hidden behind jokes
Seen cries for help go unnoticed
We don’t talk enough ‘bout the nights we fear
When the room feels loud but you’re alone in here
When the mirror feels like an enemy
And the worst voice sounds a lot like me
But pain don’t define who you are
And the darkest nights don’t cancel your spark
You don’t gotta prove your worth today
Just staying alive is enough, okay
⸻
Pre-Chorus
You don’t have to fight it
By yourself tonight
You don’t have to vanish
To make things right
⸻
Chorus
If you think you’re a burden
You’re not alone
If you think no one would notice
You’re wrong
Your voice still matters
Your name still means something
If you’re still breathing
You’re still needed
⸻
Bridge (Stripped – half beat)
Stay
Even if it hurts
Stay
Even if the words won’t come out straight
Stay
Someone needs you more than you know
Even if they never said it out loud
⸻
Final Chorus (Bigger, hopeful)
You’re not a burden
You’re not a waste
You’re not invisible
You still have a place
Your story ain’t finished
It’s still being written
If you’re still breathing
You’re still needed
⸻
Outro (Spoken)
If this song found you
You’re meant to hear it
And if no one told you today
I’m glad you’re still here
