Verse 1 Grief is not a moment It’s a change in how you breathe Someone held a place inside you Now they’re gone, but they still live in me You don’t close the door on love You don’t outrun the pain Life keeps asking you to function While your heart won’t be the same Pre-Chorus People say the world goes on Like that makes it easier But your world stopped for a name That no one else hears Chorus You don’t move on You move with it You carry love where loss still lives You learn to smile with something missing And call that strength, not weakness If it still hurts, it still matters That’s the truth they don’t admit You don’t move on You move with it Verse 2 Anyone who’s lived long enough Knows this weight by heart Parents, friends, a shared forever Torn apart before you were ready to part You go to work, you show up You do what you’re supposed to do But part of you is always waiting For someone who won’t come through Pre-Chorus 2 Time doesn’t ask permission It just keeps moving ahead You’re learning how to live With what love never said Chorus You don’t move on You move with it You hold the ache and still exist Some days you stand, some days you fall Both are real, both count as living There’s no finish line for missing No deadline to get through it You don’t move on You move with it Bridge The love didn’t disappear It didn’t weaken or fade It shows up in quiet moments In habits your heart still plays If you laugh and feel the sting That doesn’t mean you’re wrong It means the love was strong enough To last this long Final Chorus You don’t move on You move with it You carry loss and still commit To staying soft in a hardened world That teaches hearts to quit Grief is proof you dared to love When staying safe was easier You don’t move on You move with it Outro Healing isn’t letting go It’s learning how to stand Holding love and loss together In the same two hands
