They’ll never know

[Female Vocal]
INTRO (spoken, soft piano)
People say they understand. They mean well. But nobody knew them the way you did. Nobody lost exactly what you lost. (beat drops slow)
VERSE 1
There's a seat at the table that I still can't fill A number in my phone I can't delete still I rehearse the conversations we were supposed to have And I laugh at the stupid things I thought would always last
They say time heals everything but time just changes shape Some mornings I forget and then it hits me like a wave Standing in the cereal aisle losing it alone Cause the brand they used to love just sent me straight back home
PRE-CHORUS
You can say you've been here, say you know the weight But you didn't know their laugh, the way they said my name Loss is loss I know, but mine is mine alone A grief that lives inside a place you've never known
CHORUS
I carry them in quiet moments nobody else can see In the songs they used to hum, in the way they looked at me Some days I'm doing fine and then some days I hit the floor Grieving ain't a straight line, it just keeps coming back for more
I know they wouldn't want me drowning in this sorrow every night I know they'd want me living, want me standing in the light But knowing what they'd want and finding how to breathe is not the same I'm trying, I'm still trying, but the missing never fades
VERSE 2
I catch myself mid-sentence reaching for the phone To tell them something funny, then remember they are gone People grieve and move on, life goes on they say But there's a version of me frozen somewhere in that day
I smile and nod and tell them yeah I'm good, I'm getting there But grief don't clock out early, it just learns to hide better
CHORUS
I carry them in quiet moments nobody else can see In the songs they used to hum, in the way they looked at me Some days I'm doing fine and then some days I hit the floor Grieving ain't a straight line, it just keeps coming back for more
I know they wouldn't want me drowning in this sorrow every night I know they'd want me living, want me standing in the light But knowing what they'd want and finding how to breathe is not the same I'm trying, I'm still trying, but the missing never fades
VERSE 3
I think about the last time and if I said enough All the words I swallowed thinking we had time to come But I feel them in the stillness when the world gets quiet enough So I live, not to forget them, but to carry them with love
BRIDGE (beat stripped to piano)
Don't need the right words, sometimes love is just showing up I'll have good days, I'll have days that knock me to my knees But I'll find my way back to them in every memory
They didn't leave me empty They left me everything they were
OUTRO (spoken, beat fades)
Grief isn't something you get over. It's something you learn to carry differently. But they're still here. In everything I do, every room I walk into. And that's enough to keep going. (fade out)
