Since That Day

We reached out into the broken sky

Silent streets and fading lights

We didn’t know what to say

So we just stayed, standing side by side

The world we knew had fallen away

Dreams scattered like paper in the rain

But even in the silence

We found something to hold

Since that day

I try to walk slower

I try to listen longer

I try to live a little softer than before

The scars are still here

The weight hasn’t gone

But we carry it better

Because we carry it together

We fall sometimes

We get lost

We laugh because we don't know what else to do

And somehow, that’s enough

We tell bad jokes by the fire

Hide the tears behind tired smiles

And in those small, clumsy moments

We find a way to heal

Maybe the world didn’t change

Maybe we just did

Maybe it’s not about winning

But about staying, even when it's hard

Since that day

I don’t need to be stronger

I just want to be a little kinder

Still trying

Still learning

Since that day

Since that day

I don’t need to be stronger

I just want to be a little kinder

Still trying

Still learning

Since that day

We reached out into the broken sky

Silent streets and fading lights

We didn’t know what to say

So we just stayed, standing side by side

The world we knew had fallen away

Dreams scattered like paper in the rain

But even in the silence

We found something to hold
