*Unconditional* _— the feeling version_
_Verse 1_
It’s 2am and my brain won’t shut up,
but your hand finds mine in the dark.
It’s the exhale I didn’t know I was holding,
the way my shoulders drop when you say “I’m not going.”
It’s safe. It’s warm. It’s the floor under my feet
when everything else feels like concrete.
_Pre-Chorus_
It’s not loud. It doesn’t need to be.
It’s a steady pulse that says “you’re home with me.”
_Chorus_
This feels like breathing after holding it too long.
Like coming in from rain and someone left the light on.
Like “I don’t have to be okay to stay.”
Like “take your armor off, you’re safe here anyway.”
It feels like forever without the pressure,
like quiet joy that doesn’t need a reason.
This is what unconditional feels like.
This is what it feels like.
_Verse 2_
It’s ugly-crying in the car and you just drive.
It’s you passing tissues, never asking why.
It’s the laugh that breaks through the panic,
the way you look at me like I’m not damaged.
It’s peace. It’s grace. It’s the sound of your key
in the door when I thought you’d leave.
_Pre-Chorus_
It’s not perfect. It’s better than that.
It’s real hands that catch me when I fall flat.
_Chorus_
This feels like breathing after holding it too long.
Like coming in from rain and someone left the light on.
Like “I don’t have to be okay to stay.”
Like “take your armor off, you’re safe here anyway.”
It feels like forever without the pressure,
like quiet joy that doesn’t need a reason.
This is what unconditional feels like.
This is what it feels like.
_Bridge_
It feels like Sunday mornings with no plans.
Like calloused fingers in calloused hands.
Like “we’ll figure it out” whispered in bed.
Like all the weight just falling from my head.
It feels like I can finally rest.
_Final Chorus_
This feels like breathing after holding it too long.
Like growing old and still choosing the same song.
Like “I see all of you and I’m not scared.”
Like “even on your worst day, I’ll still be there.”
It feels like forever without the countdown,
like coming home and putting your heart down.
This is what unconditional feels like.
God, this is what it feels like.
