[Verse 1]
I was paid to walk through hell, forgot who I was back then
Saw more last breaths than I’ll ever see first ones again
Held life in my hands, watched it slip away without a trace
They said, “Take this pill, you’ll be okay,” but pills don’t reach a soul in that kind of place
[Verse 2]
A shoebox full of labels that were never mine to wear
Dreamless sleep, numb my grief, but I still found it there
Nightmares don’t need silence, they scream in broad daylight
And no one sees the soul you lose just trying to save a life
[Chorus]
But He saw it too, every call, every tear
Every sleepless night, every echo of fear
He held the weight that I tried to disguise
Looked past the smile and into my eyes
And He shaped something stronger from all I’d been through
Turning the broken into something brand new
[Verse 3]
I’ve seen good men crumble, taken out by unseen wars
The kind of pain no uniform prepares a soul for
And I watched it steal the light from someone I held dear
That’s when my own walls gave in and I disappeared
[Bridge]
He doesn’t hand out medals, but He gives back what was lost
Not in bandages or bottles, but at the foot of the cross
He knows the names I couldn’t save, and the weight I used to hide
But He’s restoring what was broken one breath at a time
[Final Chorus]
’Cause He saw it too, every crack, every scar
Every moment we forgot who we really are
He stayed through the wreckage, through the darkest place
Held the pieces no one else could face
And He shaped something stronger from all we’d been through
Turning the broken into something brand new
