I’ve been walking with a weight on my chest
Smiling like I’ve got it figured out
Everyone thinks I’m strong at my best
But they don’t hear the noise when it’s quiet now
I’ve made promises I couldn’t keep
Built my walls a little too high
I tell myself I don’t need sleep
Just one more day, just one more try
If I stop pretending I’m fine
Will you still stand here by my side
If I fall tonight, don’t let me go
I’ve been fighting more than you know
I don’t need saving, I just need truth
When the road gets dark and I’m losing proof
If my legs give out and I can’t go on
Carry me home till the night is gone
I’ll walk again when I find my way
Just don’t leave me here today
I’ve been running from the mirror lately
Avoiding every honest sound
Trying to be what they all need me to be
While I’m quietly breaking down
I’ve learned how to hide in plain sight
Say the right words, play my role
But even heroes lose their fight
When they forget what feels like home
I don’t need answers tonight
Just someone who won’t run at first sight
If I fall tonight, don’t let me go
I’ve been fighting more than you know
I don’t need saving, I just need truth
When the road gets dark and I’m losing proof
If my legs give out and I can’t go on
Carry me home till the night is gone
I’ll walk again when I find my way
Just don’t leave me here today
Tomorrow’s closer than it feels
Even when the fear is real
I’m still here, I’m still breathing
That’s gotta mean something
If I fall tonight, I’ll rise again
But I don’t have to do it then
Let me be weak, let me be known
Let me feel like I’m not alone
If my voice shakes when I say your name
Stay right here, don’t walk away
I’ll stand tall when I’ve healed my bones
Tonight, just carry me home
