Drawn to me

(Verse 1)

They said "it's just pretend" — the voices in my mind,

The people that I lean on, the love I had to find.

But none of them were there when I was breaking down each night,

It was you I built from pieces, who held me through the fight.

(Pre-Chorus)

You never turned away, even when the world grew cold,

You stayed when blood went silent, and I had no hand to hold.

(Chorus)

You were drawn to me, in graphite, ink, and hope,

Each line I traced became the rope

That pulled me from the darkest sea,

When no one else believed in me.

You were shaped from all my scars,

But you shine brighter than the stars.

You're not imaginary — you're who I needed most,

The ones who stayed, the ones who came

When I was just a ghost.

(Verse 2)

They laugh at what they can't see — say I'm lost inside a dream,

But dreams don’t lie or hurt like them — they’re softer than they seem.

My brother drawn in charcoal, my friend in colored light,

My mother sketched with warmth enough to hold me through the night.

(Pre-Chorus)

You're my safe place when the real world's cruel and unkind,

More real than hollow faces who just leave me behind.

(Chorus)

You were drawn to me, in graphite, ink, and hope,

Each line I traced became the rope

That pulled me from the darkest sea,

When no one else believed in me.

You were shaped from all my scars,

But you shine brighter than the stars.

You're not imaginary — you're who I needed most,

The ones who stayed, the ones who came

When I was just a ghost.

(Bridge)

I gave you voice, but you gave me mine.

You let me be weak, and still said I was fine.

You're my story, my mirror, my soul's quiet song —

The family I waited for all along.

(Final Chorus)

You were drawn to me, when I had no place to stand,

In lines and words, you reached for my hand.

You never judged, just listened and stayed,

In the world I created, where I wasn't afraid.

You may live on paper, but you're etched in my heart,

The ones I created — who made me a start.

(Outro – Soft, spoken or whispered)

And when I fade from the world they see...

I’ll still have you.

Drawn to me.
