[Intro – instrumental opening before the vocal enters] [Verse 1] So many words that never reached you so many bridges built in trying to open a door that stayed closed despite all the love that kept searching When the will to change becomes too heavy and the struggle never finds its way home there are storms that cannot be controlled and moments when we must still remain [Chorus] No one has to win to be free no one has to change another to find their way love can still remain without carrying everything that was hard To accept the boundaries that exist without letting them decide our lives to let go of what could never be held and still find home [Instrumental transition] [Verse 2] So tightly can someone hold the world when fear says that it will fall so high can walls be built by hands that only wanted to protect You did what you believed was right I did what I needed to survive neither of us could then understand what we can see today [Bridge] For so long the heart believed that love meant never letting go But sometimes love is also letting another person be who they are I must find the ground within me even when the world around me changes Not running from what has been not losing what was there but finding my own way with both feet on my own ground [Instrumental lift] Distance can exist without coldness memories can remain without breaking apart a person can stand on their own ground and still wish someone well It is not about winning to be free or changing someone else to find your way love can still remain without carrying everything that was hard What could never be held can finally be set free free without leaving free without losing who I am [Let the final phrase dissolve]
