Held

[Verse 1] I used to think love had to reach inside Had to name the wound, had to pull it wide Had to prove itself with a shaking room Something urgent, something close to ruin But you sat near me like a steady chair No bright advice, no performance there Just stayed in the hour as it was And let the silence keep its shape [Pre-Chorus] I didn’t know How much of mercy Could look like not being moved away from [Chorus] Held Not rescued, not undone Held Like the night could still be night And I would still have someone Held No cure in it No grand design Just the weight of not falling through For one more night Held [Verse 2] There are kinds of comfort that ask too much Hands that hover, eyes that clutch Words that rush in to make a case Till care starts wearing the face of force But this was different This had room A little air around the bruise A little trust that I could breathe Without being told how [Pre-Chorus] I didn’t know How much of healing Could sound like nothing being taken from me [Chorus] Held Not rescued, not undone Held Like the night could still be night And I would still have someone Held No cure in it No grand design Just the weight of not falling through For one more night Held [Bridge] No questions No map No hand reaching past What I could bear Just presence Warm and plain A place for the fear To set down its name And not be chased [Final Chorus] Held Not healed all at once Held Like the world could stay the same And still become enough Held No light from above Just the quiet miracle Of being met Without being made to disappear Held [Outro] No fixing No flood Just your hand And enough
