about

This song is written for those considering self harm. Specifically in our bright and beautiful LGBTQ+ community. I’ve experienced several periods of heavy depression, and it’s through counseling and seeking assistance from others that I was able to find some light again. “The pain you hold will still be trying to control you. But I’m here for you, even though I’m broken too.” If you or someone you know is in need of immediate help, please call 988 for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. If it’s not urgent but you’re still struggling, please find someone to talk to. We all need help sometimes.

lyrics

Someday love will come around
And all lost people will finally be found
And I, no, I won’t fall asleep tonight
Without knowing if you’re here

[Chorus]
And we shall heal when shadows kneel
And hearts reveal that you’re not alone
Whatever pain that you may hold
Will still be trying to control you
But I’m here for you
Even though I’m broken too
Together we can rise
And share the burden of our lives
Just let the tears fall from your eyes
It’s hard to change the way we feel
But we shall heal

Don’t give up, you’ll make it through
It gets better, this I promise you
And I, no, I won’t fall asleep tonight
Without making sure that you’re still here

[Chorus]
And we shall heal when shadows kneel
Letting hearts reveal that you’re not alone
No we’re not alone
The pain you hold
Will still be trying to control you
But I’m still here for you
Even though I’m broken too
Together we will rise
Let’s shed the burden from our lives
Just let those tears fall from our eyes
It’s hard to change the way we feel
But we shall heal
