[Verse 1 — chitarra acustica sola, voce intima, quasi parlata] I know you haven't slept in days I know the walls are closing in I know you've read my messages And left them there — I know you're thin I'm not here to tell you that it's fine I'm not here to say I understand I just wanted you to know tonight That I'm still here — I'm still your friend [Verse 2 — ancora solo chitarra e voce, più vicino] I remember who you were before The one who laughed at everything The one who stayed up til the sun came up Just talking — not about anything I know that person's still inside I know because I've seen him fight And every time I thought you'd disappear You showed up — broken — but in the light [Pre-Chorus — tensione che cresce, ancora nuda] I'm not asking you to be okay I'm not asking you to fake a smile I'm just asking you to hold on Just a little while [— FULL BAND ENTERS HERE — drums, dual guitars, bass, orchestra —] [Chorus — tutto esplode] GET UP — I KNOW YOU'RE TIRED — GET UP — THE FIRE'S NOT OUT! YOU'VE BEEN DOWN BEFORE AND COME BACK EVERY TIME THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT! I wrote this for the nights you couldn't breathe I wrote this for the mornings you couldn't start THIS IS FOR YOU — still standing somehow — THIS IS FOR YOU — you stubborn, beautiful heart! [Verse 3 — band piena ma voce più intima, contrasto] You don't have to win today You don't have to fix it all You just have to make it to tonight And I'll catch you if you fall The thing about the dark is this — It ends — it always ends And the person on the other side Is stronger — and still your friend [Final Chorus — doppio, massima potenza] GET UP — I KNOW YOU'RE TIRED — GET UP — THE FIRE'S NOT OUT! YOU'VE BEEN DOWN BEFORE AND COME BACK EVERY TIME THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT! I wrote this for the nights you couldn't breathe I wrote this for the mornings you couldn't start THIS IS FOR YOU — still standing somehow — THIS IS FOR YOU — THIS IS FOR YOU — YOU STUBBORN — BEAUTIFUL — HEART! [Outro — voce sola, chitarra acustica torna, silenzio] This is for you. You know who you are. Hold on.
