You Seem
(Verse 1)
You seem strong
But maybe you hide
Behind something
You don’t want me to find
You seem wise
But maybe too much
No one should carry
That kind of hurt
(Pre-Chorus)
You say you’re fine
You say you don’t break
But I’ve seen the cracks
You try to erase
(Chorus)
You seem unshaken
But I know the truth
You wear your armor
Like you’ve got something to prove
It isn’t just your heart
It isn’t just your mind
I feel it in your soul
Because it’s tangled up in mine
You can tell me I’m wrong
You can try to ignore it
But I know
I know
I know
And I’m here for it
(Verse 2)
You seem unbreakable
Strong as they come
Like nothing could touch you
Like nothing has won
But you have broken
And you still do
You just don’t let
Anyone see you
You seem quiet
But heavy inside
Like you’re carrying storms
You keep out of sight
(Pre-Chorus)
You hide your scars
Like they don’t exist
But I see every line
You try to dismiss
(Chorus)
You seem unshaken
But I know the truth
You wear your armor
Like you’ve got something to prove
It isn’t just your heart
It isn’t just your mind
I feel it in your soul
Because it’s tangled up in mine
You can tell me I’m wrong
You can try to ignore it
But I know
I know
I know
And I’m here for it
(Bridge – soft, then build)
Sad… and you are
You just don’t show it
Hurt… and you are
You just don’t know it
(beat… softer)
Or maybe you do
But you won’t let it stay
(build)
I feel the weight
You push away
I feel the silence
You never say
(Final Chorus – big, emotional)
You seem strong
But I know the truth
You’re holding everything
Like it’s all on you
It isn’t just your heart
It isn’t just your pain
I feel it in your soul
Running through my veins
You can tell me I’m wrong
You can try to ignore it
But I know
I know
I know
And I’m here for it
(Outro – stripped down)
You seem…
But I see you
