[Verse 1 – soft, hushed, intimate]
I see the nights you try not to cry,
Silent tears you hide away.
I see you hold your breaking heart
Just to make it through the day.
I hear the pain you never say,
The words you swallow deep…
And I see you standing in the dark,
Stronger than you ever think.
[Pre-Chorus – gentle, steady reassurance]
I know those deep breaths at the door,
The way you steady yourself before…
You wear your courage like a borrowed coat,
Trying not to fall apart.
[Chorus – warm, direct, comforting]
But every breath you take is brave,
Every step is still a win.
You’re surviving in a world that changed,
Trying to learn how to live again.
I know it’s foreign without your child,
And I know you feel so weak…
But you’re doing better than you know,
You’re doing better than you think.
[Verse 2 – tender, witnessing]
I see you gather all the pieces
Of a heart that had to bend.
I see the quiet victories
You never let the world defend.
I see the way you carry love
In everything you do…
A weight no one else can feel,
A strength that keeps pulling you through.
[Pre-Chorus – deeper emotion, steady voice]
And all those deep breaths that you take
Before you step back into the light…
They tell me you’re still choosing life,
Even when it don’t feel right.
[Chorus – fuller, protective]
Every breath you take is brave,
Every step is still a win.
You’re learning how to breathe again
With the ache beneath your skin.
I know it’s foreign without your child,
And I know you feel so weak…
But you’re doing better than you know,
You’re doing better than you think.
[Bridge – almost spoken, heartfelt]
On the days you fall apart,
When the nights won’t let you sleep…
Please know I see your healing heart,
Even when you can’t believe.
Strength doesn’t always look like standing tall,
Sometimes it’s just making it through…
And every moment you’re still here
Is proof of how much love lives in you.
[Final Chorus – intimate, reassuring, hopeful]
Every breath you take is brave,
Every sunrise is a win.
You’re still here, you’re still moving,
Even when you’re running thin.
I know the world feels wrong without your child,
And I know you feel so weak…
But I see you, I know the truth—
You’re doing better than you think.
