Lyrics
Verse 1
You promised “better,” promised you’d be strong
But the nights are heavy, and the days are long
Tired of the “how are yous,” sick of “you’ll be fine”
I see the wreckage… hidden deep between the lines
A heart over-weighted, a soul over-spent
Tell me… where did all the magic go? Where’d it went?
Chorus
No more promises, I won’t tell you “just try”
I won’t paint a fake sun over your rainy sky
I’ll be the silence when the world gets loud
The only one who sees you… lost inside the crowd
Too tired to hold on? Too hollow to let go?
I’ll stay in the shadows… ’til you start to glow
Hook
It’s okay to be broken
It’s okay to be small
I’ll catch the pieces… if you’re gonna fall
Verse 2
Carrying their weight, but never your own
Building up a palace, just to feel alone
Fixing what you didn’t break, year after year
Swallowing the damage, masking every fear
Hands shaking now, spirit wearing thin
Tell me… how do we let the healing in?
Chorus
No more promises, I won’t tell you “just try”
I won’t paint a fake sun over your rainy sky
I’ll be the silence when the world gets loud
The only one who sees you… lost inside the crowd
Hook
It’s okay to be broken
It’s okay to be small
I’ll catch the pieces… if you’re gonna fall
(Yeah, I’ll catch ’em all…)
Bridge
Drop the mask. Let the armor hit the floor
You don’t have to be the “hero” anymore
If you’re gonna break, then break right here with me
In the wreckage… that’s where you’re finally free
Let it out. The anger. The doubt.
(Just let it all out!)
Outro
No more hollow words
No more “you’ll be fine”
It’s okay to be broken…
I’ll catch the pieces…
’Til we find the light
