NOBODY SEES THE FIGHT

Lyrics

[Verse 1 – Male Lead] They see me laughing, they think I’m strong They never see what I’ve battled all along Face another day like nothing’s wrong While I’m fighting battles nobody sees in here There’s a thousand thoughts I never say A million things I push away I keep the world from seeing me fall But who’s gonna catch me when I lose it all? [Pre-Chorus – Male Lead, Female Harmonies Building] And I keep saying I’m alright Just trying to make it through the night If you could see behind these eyes You’d know how hard I fight [Chorus – Male and Female Together] You don’t see the battles I’m fighting inside You don’t hear the screams that I’m burying alive I wear that smile, say I’m doing fine But you don’t see the war that’s raging inside I’m still standing, though I’m breaking apart You see the face, but you don’t see the scars I keep on going, keep playing my part Nobody sees the fight inside my heart! [Verse 2 – Male Lead, Female Responses] I show up for the people counting on me Give them everything they need me to be I carry the weight, never let it show There’s so much pain that nobody knows (Female: Nobody knows…) Some nights I wonder how much I can take How many pieces can a person break? But when the morning comes, I’m back on my feet Another day, another fight to beat [Pre-Chorus – Both] And I keep saying I’m alright Just trying to make it through the night If you could see behind these eyes You’d know how hard I fight [Chorus – Both, Full Power] You don’t see the battles I’m fighting inside You don’t hear the screams that I’m burying alive I wear that smile, say I’m doing fine But you don’t see the war that’s raging inside I’m still standing, though I’m breaking apart You see the face, but you don’t see the scars I keep on going, keep playing my part Nobody sees the fight inside my heart! [Instrumental – Short, Emotional Electric Guitar Solo] [Bridge – Stripped Back, Male Lead] Maybe I’m tired of pretending Maybe I’m tired of the pain Maybe I just need somebody To see I’m not okay (Female: You’re not alone…) I don’t need you to fix me I don’t need you to understand Just don’t mistake my silence For a man who doesn’t stand [Final Chorus – Explosive Male and Female Vocals] You don’t see the battles I’m fighting inside You don’t hear the screams that I’m burying alive I wear that smile, say I’m doing fine But you don’t see the war that’s raging inside I’m still standing, though I’ve fallen apart You see the face, but you don’t see the scars I keep on going, with fire in my heart Nobody sees the fight! Nobody sees the fight! [Outro – Both] Nobody sees… Nobody sees the fight inside my heart!
