Lyrics

I sit in silence, watch the world just fade
But you walk in, and the shadows all behave
You don't say much, but I hear everything
In the way you stand, in the peace you bring
Your smile's like fire in a frozen place
And I burn, but it don't hurt, it saves

You ain’t gotta look, I still feel seen
You ain’t gotta speak, and I still breathe clean
You're not just light, you’re the air I crave
Like I finally found a place I don’t have to escape
And maybe you don’t know what you mean to me
But I’m holdin’ on, quietly

[Hook / Chorus]
Tell me I’m safe when the world gets loud
Tell me I matter even when I drown
Tell me you see me, even when I hide
Tell me there's more than just the fight inside
Tell me I’m home when I stand near you
Tell me the silence still means truth too

[Verse 2]
I memorize the way you laugh, the way you sigh
Like notes in a song that carry me high
You don't even try, and still you heal
A presence that makes everything real
You’re my calm in a mind full of war
My rest, my reason, what I long for

You walk by and my chest feels light
Like maybe I’ll make it through one more night
And I’m scared that you’ll never know
How deep this runs, how far it goes
You don’t owe me nothin’, but you gave me peace
And I live in moments where you simply be

[Hook / Chorus]
Tell me I’m safe when the dark won’t sleep
Tell me you’d care if I fell too deep
Tell me you’d notice if I slipped away
Tell me just standing here is okay
Tell me I’m home when I’m lost in doubt
Tell me there's light when I’m burning out

[Bridge]
You don’t gotta hold me, just don’t let go
You don’t gotta speak, I already know
If this world forgets who I am someday
Just breathe near me, and I’ll find my way

[Final Hook / Outro]
Tell me I’m safe like the way you are
Tell me I’m close, even when it’s far
Tell me the quiet still carries weight
Tell me this bond ain't just a twist of fate
Tell me I’m home when I look at you
Tell me I’m more than I ever knew
