You Don'T Know

I’m not asking for a miracle, just a little light
Someone to stand with me through the endless fight
Don’t need you to fix me or understand it all
Just catch me when I fall

You say, “Just let it go,” like it’s that easy
But you can’t feel the weight that’s underneath me

You don’t know what i hide behind these eyes
The battles i’ve been fighting in the silence of the night
You don’t hear the darkness in my mind
Screaming for a reason, aching just to find
That someone sees me, really sees me
But you don’t know...
No, you don’t know

You tell me, “Time will heal,” like it’s a perfect cure
But some wounds don’t fade—they just mature
I wish I could explain, but the words all fall apart
'Cause how do you describe a shattered heart?

You hold my hand, but never reach the centre
You think I’m fine, but I’m barely holding together

You don’t know what i hide behind these eyes
The battles i’ve been fighting in the silence of the night
You don’t hear the darkness in my mind
Screaming for a reason, aching just to find
That someone sees me, really sees me
But you don’t know...
No, you don’t know

I smile in the mirror, but it cracks a little more
Every time I fake the strength I had before
You see me walking tall, like nothing ever changed
But there's a thunderstorm behind this calm façade I stage

'Cause you don’t know what i hide behind these eyes
The war i never asked for, the tears i never cried
You don’t hear the darkness in my mind
But maybe if you tried, maybe you would find
That i’m still breathing, still believing
Even though...
You don’t know

You don’t know...
But maybe someday, you will
