[Intro] [Verse 1] You hide your hurt in silence, Like smoke behind your eyes. I try to pull you closer, But you’re lost between goodbyes. Every word feels heavy, Like we’re talking underwater. And I can’t lift you higher, When you’re sinking even farther. [Pre-Chorus 1] I can’t fix the ghost you chase, Or rewrite what I can’t know. All I have are open arms— And the strength to let you go. [Chorus] When you go, where I can’t go, I’ll stand here, where you’ll always know. Every heartbeat, every echo, Fades beneath the undertow. When you go, where I can’t go, Just know I never let you go. [Verse 2] You speak in quiet riddles, Like you’re halfway, and just might. I hold your hand through shadows, But I can’t give you light. You fade between the frequencies, A dream I can’t decode. And I whisper through the distance— Please don’t go alone. [Pre-Chorus 2] I can’t fight the storm inside, Or heal what you won’t show. But love still echoes endlessly, Even when you have to go. [Chorus] When you go, where I can’t go, I’ll still burn inside your afterglow. Every heartbeat, every echo, Fades beneath the undertow. When you go, where I can’t go, Just know I never let you go. [Refrain] I’ll keep the light on, Even when you fade. I’ll keep the light on, Through every shade. If you find your way back home, You’ll never be alone. [Outro] Love isn’t rescue— It’s staying still. A silent promise— I always will. [Spoken Word (fade out)] “I can’t follow you there. Not into the eye of your storm,. But if you ever turn around— I’ll be here, still standing, right where you left me.”
