Verse 1
He walks in like he’s unbreakable steel
Shoulders squared like he don’t ever feel
Laughs it off, keeps the room at ease
But there’s a storm in him nobody sees
He goes quiet when the weight cuts deep
Like silence is a promise he keeps
Builds his walls, brick by brick alone
Calls it strength, calls it “I’m just fine” at home
Pre-Chorus
You say he’s solid, say he’s tough
But strength like that can crack enough
Chorus
Yeah, he looks strong, but did you notice
How he carries more than he shows us
Shrugs off love like it don’t belong
Like he’s been told it’s been wrong too long
He smiles quick, but it fades in his eyes
Like the truth is buried somewhere inside
Yeah, he stands tall, never asking for help
But did you notice… he’s losing himself?
Verse 2
He remembers every word you say
Every hurt you try to hide away
Knows your battles, knows your fears
But forgets his own through all these years
Gives his time like it don’t run dry
Burns himself just to keep you light
Shows up strong when he’s falling apart
Holds the world with a breaking heart
Pre-Chorus
You call him brave, you call him gold
But even gold can bend and fold
Chorus
Yeah, he looks strong, but did you notice
How he carries more than he shows us
Shrugs off love like it don’t belong
Like he’s been told it’s been wrong too long
He smiles quick, but it fades in his eyes
Like the truth is buried somewhere inside
Yeah, he stands tall, never asking for help
But did you notice… he’s losing himself?
Bridge
Maybe strength ain’t the weight he holds
Maybe it’s the truth he’s never told
Maybe healing starts when the armor breaks
When he lets someone see the ache
What if love could reach that place
Where he’s been hiding all his pain
What if someone stayed long enough
To show him he’s already enough
Final Chorus
Yeah, he looks strong, now do you notice
He don’t have to carry it all, just hold this
A hand, a word, a steady light
Something real in the dead of night
That smile could reach his eyes again
If he believed what lives within
Yeah, he’s been strong for everyone else…
Now let him learn to save himself
Outro
Yeah, he looks strong…
But now you notice.
