[Verse 1] Rent due Monday Card maxed Friday Coffee on credit again Half tank Long drive Talking like we’re fine Joking in the traffic jam You hold my hand Say “we’ll make plans Once this storm gets tired” I laugh it off But my chest feels soft Like a match too close to fire [Chorus] We’re halfway to the breakthrough Hanging by a thread But it’s our thread Breathing in the smoke and the sunrise Telling all our fears “they’re not done yet” If all we’ve got is faith and each other right here Then we’re not just living on a prayer We’re kicking down the door to get there [Verse 2] Secondhand sofa Stains from old soda Dream boards taped to the wall Handwritten budget Cross out Adjust it Change of coins in a jar by the hall But you dance barefoot On the unpaid bills Spin me like we already won You say “this struggle Is part of the muscle We’ll flex when the hard part’s done” [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] Someday we’ll point at these nights Say “we nearly broke But we bent just right” [build] Every setback Every scar Is a mile mark on the way to where we are [crescendo] So when the doubt gets loud We’ll sing it louder than the crowd [Chorus]
