Stay until morning

Verse 1

You..

don’t talk the way you used to

You stare past the window frame

I hear doctors in the hallway

Saying words I cannot say

I used to think you were unbreakable

Stronger than the weathered sea

Now I hold your shaking hands

Like you once held me

Pre-Chorus

If I could trade our places

I would do it quietly

Chorus

Stay until morning

Don’t leave me with the night

I’m not as brave as I pretend

When you turn off the light

You told me monsters weren’t real

That shadows couldn’t harm

But I still need your voice

When the dark feels like a storm

Verse 2

You...

apologize for weakness

Like it’s something you designed

But I’ve seen giants fall before

And still be giants in my mind

The room is getting smaller

Or maybe it’s just me

Trying not to crumble

While you’re trying to breathe

Chorus

Stay until morning

Don’t leave me with the night

I’m not as brave as I pretend

When you turn off the light

You told me monsters weren’t real

That shadows couldn’t harm

But I still need your voice

When the dark feels like a storm

You don’t have to fight it

You don’t have to be the shield

Let me be the armor now

Let me be your field

Stay until morning

Or slip away in peace

I’ll carry every story

You were too tired to keep

And if you see the monsters

Tell them I’m not afraid

You raised me stronger than the dark

So I’ll be okay
