when i was down

(Intro)

Yeah…

Sometimes life pushes you to the edge

And when you’re ready to fall,

Someone catches you…

This is for you.

(Verse 1)

I was a ghost in my own damn room,

Lost in the dark, drowning in my gloom.

Pills on the table, thoughts out of control,

Staring at the ceiling with a half-broken soul.

Then you came, with nothin’ but a smile,

Sat beside my mess, stayed for a while.

Didn’t judge the cracks in my broken frame,

You saw through the chaos, still called my name.

I pushed you away, yeah, I screamed, I fought,

Said I wasn’t worth the love you brought.

But you stayed like a light in the endless night,

Held me close, said, “You’ll be alright.”

(Chorus)

When I was down, you lifted me high,

Wiped my tears when I wanted to cry.

You gave me love when I had none to give,

You made me believe, gave me reason to live.

(Verse 2)

I was broke—no money, no pride, no plan,

You held my hand, said, “I know you’re a man.”

Didn’t flinch when I showed you my scars,

You stitched up my wounds and healed my heart.

You saw what they didn’t, the fire in me,

Buried deep under all the debris.

When the world said, “He’s never coming back,”

You stood like a queen, kept me on track.

I remember the nights, you prayed I’d be strong,

Whispered to the dark, “You belong, you belong.”

While I cursed my fate, you sang me hope,

Pulling me up when I couldn’t cope.

(Bridge)

And I swear on my life,

I’ll make this count,

For the woman who loved me,

When I had my doubts.

(Chorus)

When I was down, you lifted me high,

Wiped my tears when I wanted to cry.

You gave me love when I had none to give,

You made me believe, gave me reason to live.

(Verse 3)

Now I’m standin’ tall, with my head held straight,

Stronger than the weight of my darkest fate.

And every step forward, I take for you,

The one who believed when the sky wasn’t blue.

I’ll fight for your dreams, like you fought for mine,

Every song I write, I’ll paint your sign.

You’re the reason I’m here, with a second chance,

To rise from the ashes, to learn how to dance.

So here’s to the queen who saved my soul,

The love of my life who made me whole.

This story ain’t over, no, it’s just begun,

‘Cause with you by my side, we’ve already won.

(Chorus)

When I was down, you lifted me high,

Wiped my tears when I wanted to cry.

You gave me love when I had none to give,

You made me believe, gave me reason to live.

(Outro)

Yeah…

This is for you.

For every time I fell, and you picked me up.

Thank you.
