[Verse 1] You were tired in the hallway Hands shaking on the keys Said “I’m fine It’s just a long day” But your eyes said “stay with me” I just listened in the silence Let your storm roll through the air Held the space Held the moment Like a fragile little prayer [Pre-Chorus] You never needed the stage You never asked for the praise You just carried the weight Of a thousand little days [Chorus] If you breathe easier ’Cause I was here If one heavy heart feels lighter ’Cause I drew near If one small world Turns from gray to clear To know even one life has breathed easier That’s all I needed to be here [Verse 2] Left a note on your mirror Just a crooked Sleepy line “Call me when it’s getting darker” Signed it with a little sign You said years felt like a burden Now they fit inside your hands Not because I fixed the hurting Just ’cause I chose to understand [Bridge] All the tiny Tired moments Where you think it’s not enough Every tear you caught in passing Every time you chose to love [low vocal register] That’s the sum of all your glory [echoed harmony] That’s the meaning breaking through [full voice] To know one life breathed easier Is the proof that you once were there [Chorus] If you breathe easier ’Cause I was here If one heavy heart feels lighter ’Cause I drew near If one small world Turns from gray to clear To know even one life has breathed easier That’s all I needed to be here [Verse 3] You called your mom back twice Even though you were barely awake You listened through the same old story Just to hear her calm at the end You answered your own dark thoughts With a text that you never sent But you sent another one To a friend who was fading out [Chorus] If you breathe easier ’Cause I was here If one heavy heart feels lighter ’Cause I drew near If one small world Turns from gray to clear To know even one life has breathed easier That’s all I needed to be here
