Stronger Than Before

[Verse 1]
I see the tired in your eyes
Medicine cups by the bed
Laughing anyway at my bad jokes
Saying
"Save your tears for the end"
[Pre-Chorus]
But I believe in every breath you take
Every shaky step you’re fighting to make
[Chorus]
You are stronger than before
Even when you’re feeling small on the floor
Every scar
Every breath
Every sleepless night
Is a story that says you’re still in this fight
When the weight is too much
I’ll carry more
‘Cause you are stronger
Stronger than before
[Verse 2]
Calendar filled up with tests
Still you’re asking how I am
Tucking my fear in your old sweatshirt
Like it’s all part of the plan
[Pre-Chorus]
If you forget how brave you’ve been
I’ll be the mirror you’re looking in
[Chorus]
You are stronger than before
Even when you’re feeling small on the floor
Every scar
Every breath
Every sleepless night
Is a story that says you’re still in this fight
When the weight is too much
I’ll carry more
‘Cause you are stronger
Stronger than before
[Bridge]
On the days you can’t stand
We’ll sit
On the days you can’t speak
I’ll fill it (mm)
On the nights it feels like too much pain
I’ll be right here
Saying your name
[Chorus]
You are stronger than before
Even when you’re feeling small on the floor
Every scar
Every breath
Every sleepless night
Is a story that says you’re still in this fight
When your hope feels lost
I’ll guard the door
‘Cause you are stronger
Stronger than before

Warm acoustic pop ballad with male vocals; intimate fingerpicked guitar and soft piano in the verses, subtle pads underneath. Chorus lifts with steady drums, rich bass, and stacked harmonies. Bridge pulls the band back for a near-a cappella moment, then swells into a final, anthemic chorus with a touch of strings., inspiring
