[START] [INTRO] Ahhh [VERSE 1] Would you stay by my side— While I’m trying to change? Some days it feels like rewinding a hurricane. I know none of this damage was your fault, But it bleeds through the cracks and corrodes us with pain. I’m learning to loosen— The grip of my past, One father who vanished, one who drank and snapped. I grew up mistaking the shouting for care, So I flinch when it’s quiet— Apologize for problems that ain't there. [HOOK] I’m falling, baby, I’m falling, Down into patterns I swore I would break. That’s why I’m calling, calling, Hoping my voice is enough to make you stay. Would you stay when I stumble, When I’m tearing at the seams? I don’t expect you to carry me, But I pray you don’t leave. [VERSE 2] I hate how I argue, react, and defend, You pull up your walls, I repeat it again. And you never deserved the weight of my ghosts, But you’re holding the house down when it’s shaking the most. I'm keeping myself upright for now, Working through the haze with my head hanging down, I bottled the hurt, then I swallowed it whole, Told myself I was fine till it hollowed my soul, And yeah, I'm an asshole, Yeah, I know. Putting this weight on your shoulders, Make you deal with my drama. I don't deserve to hold her. You don't deserve my trauma. [BRIDGE] I’m under construction, foundation exposed, The beams are still fragile, but you never fold. Who would’ve thought that the past wouldn’t rest? It keeps carving its lessons into my chest. [HOOK] I’m falling, baby, I’m falling, Down into patterns I swore I would break. That’s why I’m calling, calling, Hoping my voice is enough to make you stay. Would you stay when I stumble, When I’m tearing at the seams? I don’t expect you to carry me, But I pray you don’t leave. [OUTRO] Every scar is a story I wish I could trade, But you’re the only light that's never faded. If you’re tired, I’ll understand, if you stay, I’ll believe— That the ruins I come from don’t define what we’ll be.
