Verse 1 The morning came like it always does Sunlight on the floor But everything is wrong somehow You’re not here anymore The world keeps making ordinary sounds Coffee, cars, the news How is it breathing so easily When I can’t breathe without you? Pre-Chorus You were the steady in my shaking The hand that pulled me through If I’m still standing here It’s only because of you Chorus So how do I do this without you? How do I wake up and not fall apart? How do I walk through a world That doesn’t know it just broke my heart? You were my lighthouse in the dark My proof that I’d be okay How do I do this without you When you were my way? Verse 2 I hear you in the quiet spaces Like waves inside my chest You taught me how to fight for life How not to settle for less But strength feels like a stranger now Courage feels too far I don’t know how to be this brave Without knowing where you are Pre-Chorus You saved me more times than I can count When I was barely hanging on Now I’m the one still here somehow Trying to be strong Chorus (Bigger) How do I do this without you? How do I breathe through this pain? How do I carry the love you gave Without breaking under the weight? If love could build a bridge to you I’d run until my feet were through Tell me how I’m meant to live In a world that’s missing you Bridge (Stripped back, near whisper) If I close my eyes, I see the ocean The fearless way you stood You told me I was stronger Than I ever thought I could Maybe that’s the answer Buried in the blue Maybe I survive this Because you taught me how to Final Chorus (Full band, gritty, emotional crack in voice) I’ll do this because you loved me I’ll stand because you said I could I’ll carry every word you gave Like a map inside my blood And when I don’t know who I am I’ll remember who you knew Maybe I don’t do this without you Maybe I do it with you
