Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Hmm no no no

Mm

Verse 1

Three in the morning I counted the cracks in the wall

Asked every question the mirror refused to recall

Empty cup on the table

Nothing left in my name

But the breath that kept knocking

Same stubborn flame

Pre-Chorus

And I told myself this time

This time I would crawl

Learned that a life can break you

Long before it falls

Chorus

Down to my knees

But I'm standing again

Every scar put a beat in my chest

I lost my way

I still found the road

And I'm here

I'm here

Hook

Still here

Still here

Verse 2

Let down by the ones who swore they would never leave

Fell for the promises I was too tired to grieve

Woke with the taste of letting go on my tongue

Then chose the harder road when the morning came young

Pre-Chorus

And I told myself this time

This time I would crawl

Learned that a life can break you

Long before it falls

Chorus

Down to my knees

But I'm standing again

Every scar put a beat in my chest

I lost my way

I still found the road

And I'm here

I'm here

Bridge

They buried my name in the weather

I pulled it out of the rain

Folded the doubt like a letter

And sent it away

Chorus

Down to my knees

But I'm standing again

Every scar put a beat in my chest

I lost my way

I still found the road

And I'm here

I'm here

Outro

Still here

Still here

Oh I'm here

Still here
