[Verse 1]
I held your hand when the sky fell down
When you needed someone
Through your silence, your storms, your sleepless nights
I was your light—I was your fight
Built you back when the world caved in
Carried your weight like it was thin
I was your home when you had none
I stayed until the dark was gone
[Pre-Chorus]
But now the rain is fallin’ on me
All the damage you left behind
Tell me…
[Chorus]
Where were you then
When my world broke too?
When I couldn’t breathe,
With everything falling on me
I was your shelter
Your steady truth
But when I’m down
You’re not around
I showed up for all your lows
So where were you when I lost hope?
Where were you then?
Where were you… then?
[Verse 2]
I cheered you on when no one cared
Took you in when you had nothing
I gave my all, wasted my time
Even when I barely had mine
Now I’m drowning in my doubt
And you’re nowhere to pull me out
You said you loved me endlessly
But where are you when I need you?
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I’m learning what love really means
It’s more than words—it’s showing up for me
[Chorus]
Where were you then
When my heart gave in?
When I was cracked wide open
And needed someone to hold me
I was your constant
But where’s my end?
When I’m down
You’re gone again
I caught you every time you fell
But now I’m breaking by myself
Where were you then?
Where were you… then?
[Bridge]
Don’t say you didn’t know
Don’t say “I had no clue”
I screamed without a sound
You just chose not to move
[Final Chorus]
Where were you then
When I needed grace?
When I looked around
And saw no face
I was your fighter
You gave me lies
When I cried
You closed your eyes
I stood through all your storms
But now I see what love is for
And it’s not this…
No, it’s not this…
[Outro]
Where were you then?
Where were you…
When I needed you?
