[Verse 1 (close mic, almost spoken]
I see you bleeding in the middle of the night
Staring at the walls like they’re closing in tight
Every thought telling you you’re not enough
And the world outside just hits too rough
Yeah, I know that look in your eyes
Like you’re tired of trying just to survive
[Pre-Chorus (soft, steady]
Even when your hands shake
Even when your heart might break
I ain’t going nowhere
[Chorus (warm, grounded, soulful]
I’ll stand in the dark with you
I’ll keep the light on low
I’ll carry the weight when you can’t anymore
You don’t gotta fight this on your own
I’ll be the hand that brings you back home
[Verse 2 (confessional]
I hear the silence screaming in your chest
All those dreams you lost, the nights you don’t rest
Every breath feels heavy, every step feels wrong
But you don’t have to be strong all night long
Yeah, I see the pain you hide so well
I know that kind of hell
[Pre-Chorus 2 (breathy, reassuring]
Even when the stars don’t show
And you forget what you’re worth
I’ll remind you
[Chorus (fuller, more grit]
I’ll stand in the dark with you
I’ll keep the light on low
I’ll carry the weight when you can’t anymore
You don’t gotta face this storm alone
I’ll be the hand that brings you back home
[Bridge (spoken → sung, gospel feel]
I see the cracks where hope slipped away
I ain’t scared of the mess, I’ll stay
You’re not invisible
I see every scar
Even when you don’t know who you are
Every tear, every fall, every night you hide
I’ll walk with you
Yeah, I’ll stay right by your side
[Final Chorus (big but intimate, voice cracking]
I’ll stand in the dark with you
I’ll hold on when you can’t hold through
I’ll carry the weight, I’ll carry the pain
Till you feel like yourself again
You don’t gotta face this on your own
I’ll be the hand that brings you back home
[Outro (whispered, breathy]
Hey… breathe
I’m right here
You’re not lost
I got you…
