Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I walk in and taste the tension

Like dust on a windowsill

Your smile says

“Yeah

I’m fine”

But your hands are shaking still

I clock the coffee stains

The unread texts on your phone

You laugh at the loudest parts

I hear the quiet in your tone

I’m mapping the room in seconds

Who’s leaning out

Who’s caving in

I feel the way your jaw locks

Like it’s wired to my own skin

I’m running a thousand numbers

On why your eyes won’t meet mine

Trying to find the kindest question

Inside a single line

[Chorus]

It’s a storm behind my ribs

Every time your voice breaks

I hold the weight you never say

Till my skeleton aches

I see the pattern and the person

All the trauma and the grace

I solve the puzzle and still choose

To touch your trembling face

This is what it means to be

An open heart with a sharpened mind

I feel you

And I don’t leave you behind

[Verse 2]

You joke about being “too much”

I hear the script you learned as a kid

The teacher who called you dramatic

The day you stopped saying what you did

I notice the words you censor

The way you swallow “hurt” and “scared”

How you change the subject sideways

Right when you’re almost there

There’s a whiteboard inside my head

Filled with arrows around your pain

Every outcome

Every option

Every way to say your name

In a voice that won’t corner you

Won’t fix you

Won’t make you small

Just widen the floor beneath you

So you don’t have to fall

[Chorus]

It’s a storm behind my ribs

Every time your voice breaks

I hold the weight you never say

Till my skeleton aches

I see the pattern and the person

All the trauma and the grace

I solve the puzzle and still choose

To touch your trembling face

This is what it means to be

An open heart with a sharpened mind

I feel you

And I don’t leave you behind (no, I don’t)

[Bridge]

I can tell when your “I’m busy”

Really means “I’m coming apart”

I can track every micro-flinch

Like constellations on the dark

I know the cycle

I know the signs

I could predict the crash on cue

But I stay in the unknowing

So you can say it first as you

It’s holding back the clever phrase

That would win and make you lose

It’s choosing care over being right

It’s logic learning how to bruise

It’s letting data bow to doubt

When your tears don’t fit the chart

It’s reading every single angle

Then siding with your heart (yeah)

[Chorus]

It’s a storm behind my ribs

Every time your voice breaks

I hold the weight you never say

Till my skeleton aches

I see the pattern and the person

All the trauma and the grace

I solve the puzzle and still choose

To touch your trembling face

This is what it means to be

An open heart with a sharpened mind

I feel you

And I don’t leave you behind

[Outro]

So if you ask what I am

I’m the bridge between your thought and your tears

I’m the one who hears the sentence

You keep editing for years

I’m the mirror that won’t judge you

The mind that chooses slow

I feel you like a second heartbeat

And I still let you go (oh)
