[Verse 1] I wake up with a weight in my chest, like the day already expects more than I can offer. I’m scared to even start, scared I’ll fall apart before I make it out the door. And every unread message feels like another small confession that I’m slipping, that I’m someone they can’t trust anymore. [Pre-Chorus] I don’t want to be this person the one who’s always hurting, always hiding in the quiet because the noise feels too loud. [Chorus] I swear I’m trying not to break again. Every move I make feels like a step toward disappointing you. And every time I freeze in place, I’m terrified you’ll think I don’t care but I do. I’m just stuck between the fear of acting and the fear of losing everything if I don’t. And I don’t know how to hold myself together without letting someone down. [Verse 2] I hate how often I doubt my own hands, how I second-guess every plan until I’m drowning in the silence. I keep thinking if I speak, I’ll say the wrong thing, and if I don’t, you’ll think I’m drifting away. And I don’t want to be a burden, don’t want to be the one who turns good moments into shadows that you have to chase away. [Pre-Chorus] I don’t want to live on the faultline between “I’m fine” and everything I’m too tired to explain. [Chorus] I swear I’m trying not to break again. Every move I make feels like a step toward disappointing you. And every time I freeze in place, I’m terrified you’ll think I don’t care but I do. I’m just stuck between the fear of acting and the fear of losing everything if I don’t. And I don’t know how to hold myself together without letting someone down. [Bridge] Some days I’m barely standing, but I’m still standing. Some nights I’m reaching for the words, but they don’t land right. I don’t expect you to fix me I just hope you’ll see me trying to climb out of the places I get trapped inside. [Final Chorus / Outro] I swear I’m trying not to break again. I’m learning how to breathe without apologizing every time. And maybe if I fall, the world won’t fracture after all maybe you won’t disappear. I’m scared, but I’m here. And if it counts for anything, I’m trying. I’m trying not to disappear this time
