Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 You spoke like you knew me Like you’d been inside my head Like every word you said was honest Not something left unsaid You smiled when you cut me down Said it was for my good I held it in, I took the blame Like I always would Pre-Chorus You never saw the nights I was just trying to breathe Chorus If I fall, I get back up quietly If I bleed, I don’t let it show I don’t shout, I don’t give you that I just learn how to grow You wanted power, I wanted truth You wanted fear, I wanted proof I don’t become what you made of me I get stronger than that Verse 2 You lived off doubt like it kept you warm Picked at the cracks just to feel in control You called me weak, but I see it now You only fight what you can’t let go I carried things you wouldn’t face Held your weight, learned my place Turned all the damage into restraint And walked away Pre-Chorus You tried to make me disappear But I’m still standing here Chorus If I fall, I get back up quietly If I bleed, I don’t let it show I don’t shout, I don’t give you that I just learn how to grow You wanted power, I wanted truth You wanted fear, I wanted proof I don’t become what you made of me I get stronger than that Bridge (spoken / half-sung) I won’t wear your name on my skin I won’t carry the shame you’re in You never learned what I did That strength doesn’t need to win Final Chorus If I fall, I get back up quietly If I bleed, I don’t let it show I don’t shout, I don’t give you that I just learn how to grow You tried to tell me who I was From the echo of your doubt But I outgrew the noise you made And walked it out Yeah, I get stronger than that Outro I don’t break, I don’t fall apart I’m more than the words you left on my heart
