Seek The Light

"Even when the shadows tell you not to"

[Intro — soft, distant, warm] One… Two… Three… Breathe…

You don’t have to hide anymore.

[Verse 1] You learned to wear your smiling face like it was your armor You learned silence keeps the monsters from appearing at your door You buried every wounded part so nobody could see And called it safety Called it survival Called it being free

But I can feel you in there Still reaching through the dark Still hoping someone finds you Without tearing you apart

[Pre-Chorus] Everyone’s hiding Everyone’s searching For somewhere they’ll be understood But fear builds prisons And lonely hearts convince themselves They’re safer misunderstood

[Chorus] Seek the light Even when the shadows tell you not to Seek the light Even when the hurt inside feels impossible You built your walls so carefully But you don’t have to stay alone There is still a way back home

…Seek the light

[Verse 2] I’ve seen the masks people wear to make it through the day I’ve seen the strongest souls collapse when no one asked if they were okay I know the voice that tells you You’ll only poison everything I know the fear of being known And still not feeling worthy

Because I’ve hurt before too I’ve felt abandoned I’ve stood in rooms so quiet I could hear my own heart breaking

[Pre-Chorus 2] Everyone’s hiding Everyone’s seeking Some proof they deserve to be loved We’re all a little frightened Of what might happen If somebody truly sees us

[Chorus] Seek the light Even when the dark feels overwhelming Seek the light Even when the voice inside says disappear You built your walls so carefully But pain was never meant to stay And fear was never meant to lead the way

…Seek the light

[Bridge — soft strings, intimate] Did you hear that That was hope Still alive inside your chest Did you hear that That was your heart Refusing to give up yet Did you hear that The sound of someone Finally opening the door

Did you hear that

You’re not alone anymore

[Final Chorus — full emotional lift] Seek the light Even if your hands are shaking reaching for it Seek the light Even if you’ve spent your whole life hiding from it You built your walls so carefully But love can reach beyond the stone And no matter how deep the night becomes

You are never too far gone

[Outro — quiet piano, warm] Ten… Nine… Eight… Seven…

Stay with me.

Six… Five… Four…

The morning’s coming.

Three… Two… One…

I found you too.
