Verse 1 The night feels heavy on my chest tonight Broken dreams and borrowed courage Promises we swore would hold the light Now they echo in the silence
We’ve choked on words we never said Let tears fall where hope once lay But even bruised and barely breathing I still hear your heartbeat say
Pre-Chorus If the world turns its back on us If the doors all slam shut tight I’ll be here, hand in your hand Choosing you, choosing the fight
Chorus Who cares what they say we don’t need their doubts We’ve been hurt, bruised and dragged through the mud Through the cracks, through the heartaches We are stronger than we’ve been credited for Even if the whole world’s against us We won’t run, we won’t fall apart We bend, we break, but we still stand Love like ours still beats in the dark
Verse 2 Scars don’t lie, they tell the truth Of battles fought in quiet rooms Every tear was proof we tried Every loss still led to you They said we’re wrong, they said we’d fail Said this road’s too hard to take But hope is stitched in stubborn ways Into every breath we make
Pre-Chorus So when the ground is shaking hard And fear whispers “let this go” We’ll scream louder than the storm This is all we’ll ever know
Chorus Who cares what they say we don’t need their doubts We’ve been hurt, bruised and dragged through the mud Through the cracks, through the heartaches We are stronger than we’ve been credited for Even if the whole world’s against us We won’t run, we won’t fall apart We bend, we break, but we still stand Love like ours still beats in the dark
Bridge We’re not fearless We’re just brave enough to stay When every easy answer Tells us to walk away If this is war, then we choose love If this is pain, we’ll endure No matter how hard it gets We know what we’re fighting for
Final Chorus Who cares what they say we don’t need their doubts We’ve been hurt, bruised and dragged through the mud Through the cracks, through the heartaches We are stronger than we’ve been credited for Even if the whole world’s against us We won’t run, we won’t fall apart We bend, we break, but we still stand Love like ours still beats in the dark Still we stand… still we stand
Outro When the lights go out And the night feels long I’ll still be here Proving them wrong
