[Verse]
Matthew why didn’t you tell me
The flames weren’t just outside
I saw your strength in the fire
But not the pain you tried to hide
[Prechorus]
The sirens called you every day
But who could hear your heart break away
[Chorus]
Matthew why didn’t you tell me
I would have held you all night
Don’t you know how much I love you
You didn’t have to fight alone this fight
[Verse 2]
You ran into burning buildings
But couldn’t escape your mind
You saved so many others
But left yourself behind
[Prechorus]
The smoke clears but scars remain
You carried too much of their pain
[Chorus]
Matthew why didn’t you tell me
I would have held you all night
Don’t you know how much I love you
You didn’t have to fight alone this fight
