Verse 1 I pour the tea, I fold the sheets I hold the weight no one can see He breathes, he lives, but I fade out In quiet rooms that never shout Pre-Chorus I’m more than strong, but strength gets tired I’m more than love, I’m worn and wired And still I show up every day While silence slowly takes my name Chorus Loneliness waits like an old friend near But I’m already there, I live right here In a house full of love and an empty chair I give all I have, but no one’s aware These invisible hands, they shake sometimes But nobody sees the tears I hide I’m breaking in places no one understands Still holding on with invisible hands Verse 2 He smiles like he used to do But doesn't see what I’ve come through The world walks past, they don’t ask why I laugh too soft, I cry too dry Pre-Chorus They say I’m blessed to be so close But they don’t know what closeness costs I long for arms to hold me tight Just once, to say you’re seen tonight Chorus Loneliness waits like an old friend near But I’m already there, I live right here In a house full of love and an empty chair I give all I have, but no one’s aware These invisible hands, they shake sometimes But nobody sees the tears I hide I’m breaking in places no one understands Still holding on with invisible hands Bridge If love was enough to make me whole Why do I feel so out of soul? I wish they knew, I wish they’d see That holding on can echo grief Finalness waits, but I know her face She sleeps beside me in his place And though I ache, I still remain A lighthouse standing in the rain These invisible hands—they still hold light Even when the world forgets my fight I’m breaking in places, quiet and grand Still carrying love with invisible hands
