Lyrics
Description
Intro (instrumental, Em 12 Cmaj7, let it breathe)
---
Verse I
[Lead]
You say I turn away from the damage,
that I leave things buried in the ground.
It feels like youre already gone
when your eyes wont meet mine now.
[Lead]
I know you dont mean to push me out,
I know its the hurt that speaks instead.
Still, it feels like Im watching you
carry the weight no one else would hold.
(No harmony yet  keep it naked)
---
Verse II
[Lead]
So many were lifted before you,
so many voices found their way.
You stayed quiet in the corner,
hoping someone would hear you break.
[Harmony  very soft, on last line only]
(hear you break)
---
Verse III
[Lead]
Youve lived inside this cage so long
it feels like comfort wearing thin.
Hands you never asked for
decided where your life begins.
[Lead]
I see it flicker in your eyes 
that moment youre almost done.
And Im terrified because I dont know
how to stop the damage once its begun.
---
Pre-Chorus
[Lead]
You dont want the world to change,
just the weight inside your chest.
One day without the ache,
one night where you can rest.
[Harmony  subtle thirds, last two lines]
(inside your chest)
(you can rest)
---
Chorus (restrained, not explosive)
[Lead]
I dont want to lose you.
The brakes are gone.
Were drifting further
from where we belong.
[Harmony  enters halfway, airy]
(dont want to lose you)
[Lead]
Im scared of where were headed,
but Im still holding on.
---
Verse IV
[Lead]
Maybe Im selfish 
Ive carried that thought for years.
But I would shoulder your sorrow
until it hollowed me out from here.
[Lead]
Id take the nights that wont stay silent,
the memories that wont release.
If it meant you could sleep
without fighting what you see.
---
Bridge (drop instruments back, emotional core)
[Lead]
I dont know how to save you.
I dont know how to mend the past.
All I know is Im still standing
when everything else has passed.
[Harmony  low octave below, very Opeth]
(still standing)
[Lead]
If were off course, then let us be,
lost together in the dark.
(Both  quiet unison)
Im still here.
---
Final Chorus
[Lead]
I dont want to lose you.
The brakes are gone.
If this is falling,
Ill fall along.
[Harmony  fuller but gentle]
(dont want to lose you)
(Ill fall along)
[Lead]
Ill love who you are today,
and who you wake up as tomorrow,
even if all you bring with you
is tired bones and borrowed hope.
---
Outro
[Lead]
You are enough.
As you are now.
Still breathing.
Still here.
[Harmony  final line only, held note]
(still here)
[Lead]
Im not here to fix you.
Im here to stay.
(End on unresolved Em 12 Cmaj7, let it fade)
