Beautiful Eyes in Emergency Care

[Verse 1]
You walked in from the cold
Smell of rain in your hair
Triage wristband on your arm
Whispers of emergency care
You joked with the nurse
But your hands gave you away
Every tremor said trauma
Every shiver said stay
[Chorus]
Your beautiful eyes
Still holding the crash
Every memory a movie
Every heartbeat clash
But in this room
With our fear laid bare
We trade anxiety for air
Therapy in your laughter
Empathy in my stare
This broken world looks softer
When you’re under my care
(yeah)
When you’re under my care
[Verse 2]
You trace every old scar
Like a map you can’t unsee
Call it damage
I call it proof
That you crawled back to me
You say compassion feels strange
Like a coat that doesn’t fit
I say love is just patience
Staying close when you don’t trust it
[Bridge]
If you shake
I’m the floor
If you fall
I’m the frame
I won’t diagnose your darkness
I’ll just sit here
Say your name
When the night spikes your anxiety
And the past pulls you apart
I’ll keep time with your breathing
Rock and roll in your heart (hey!)
[Chorus]
Your beautiful eyes
Still holding the crash
Every memory a movie
Every heartbeat clash
But in this room
With our fear laid bare
We trade anxiety for air
Therapy in your laughter
Empathy in my stare
This broken world feels lighter
With your hand in my care
(oh)
With your hand in my care

rock, Alt-rock band vibe, male vocals; clean arpeggiated guitar and roomy drums in the verse, chorus explodes with crunchy power chords and gang vocals; bass glues everything with a driving eighth-note pulse; middle-eight strips back to vocal + toms before final full-throttle chorus with soaring harmony stacks and a gritty guitar counter-melody., beautiful
