Title: “Hold Me Where It Hurts” Intro (Soft keys, distant hums) Mmm… yeah Don’t rush me… Just stay right here… Verse You found me in the quiet, where I hide my truth Shadows on my heart, yeah, they know me like you do I been holding back tears I never let fall Built these walls so high, thought I’d never call But your touch don’t lie, it reads through my skin Like you hear every word I don’t let in And I’m scared you’ll see what I’ve been through But a part of me wants to fall into you Pre-Chorus If I let go tonight, would you catch my pain? If I lose control, would you stay the same? I don’t know how to love without the fear But you make it feel safe when you’re right here Chorus So hold me where it hurts, don’t let me run Stay when the night gets too undone Love me through the cracks I try to hide Lay your hands on the truth inside If I break, don’t turn away Be the reason I can stay I don’t need perfect, I need real Hold me where it hurts… let me feel Bridge I been drowning in silence, learning how to pretend Every “I’m okay” was a means to an end But your eyes don’t judge, they just understand Like you’re reaching for me with an open hand So take all my scars, every shattered piece Turn my chaos into something sweet If I tremble, don’t let me fall apart Just pull me closer to your heart Outro (Soft harmonies fade) Hold me… don’t let go… Even if I lose control… Right here… where it hurts… Is where I need you most…
