You built these walls with open hands
Turned broken pieces into plans
You gave us sunsets, gave us light
While hiding every sleepless night
You wore a smile we couldn't read
Made every wound look like it healed
You carried worlds we couldn't see
But never let us hold your grief
Who holds the heart that holds us all?
Who catches you when angels fall?
You don't have to carry every scar alone
You don't have to smile just to keep us warm
When your world is breaking
When your hands can't hold
Let me carry you home
You taught me love without a word
To stay when silence always hurts
You gave your strength away each day
Until there was none left to save
I wish I'd seen behind your eyes
The quiet battles, hidden cries
We praised the fire inside your soul
Never asked who kept it whole
You don't have to be the strong one tonight
You can fall into my arms this time
You don't have to carry every scar alone
You don't have to smile just to keep us warm
When your world is breaking
When your hands can't hold
Let me carry you home
If hope feels heavier than stone
Then let me be the road back home
For every time you carried mine
It's finally my turn tonight
You don't have to carry every scar alone
You don't have to smile just to keep us warm
When your world is breaking
When your hands can't hold
You don't have to save us anymore
You saved us long before
Let me carry you home
