[Verse 1] You keep saying “wake up” like a warning bell Like you’re lost in a room with yourself All the lights went out on your page again Black squares where your eyes used to live I don’t ask what’s wrong anymore I know silence can be a door So I sit on the floor outside Just in case you decide [Pre-Chorus] They tell me love should learn to leave But what’s the sun without a little rain on me? [Chorus] Look at your hair, still falling just right Look at your face, you’re still alive Look at your arms, they carried you here Look at your chest, you’re breathing, I swear Look at your legs, they’re holding the weight Look at your feet, you’re not too late I won’t say it out loud, I won’t make a sound But I’m here—I’m here—I won’t shut you down [Verse 2] You don’t answer texts, you disappear Like caring’s something you fear I’d help if you’d let me try But I don’t wanna be another goodbye Your pain doesn’t scare me away It just hurts me in a different way When you ache, I feel it too That’s the truth [Pre-Chorus 2] My sister says I’m breaking my own heart But loving you was never meant to be smart [Chorus] Look at your hair, look at your face Look at your arms, you’re still in this place Look at your chest, rise and fall If you won’t talk, I’ll listen to it all Look at your legs, still learning to stand Look at your feet, still touching the land I won’t ask you to open the door Just know I’m here like I was before [Bridge] I loved you quiet I loved you true I loved you knowing You never knew I don’t need saving I don’t need proof I just need you to make it through If you fall apart, I won’t look away If you go numb, I’ll still stay What’s the sun without a little rain? [Final Chorus] Look at your hair, look at your face You’re still here, you’re still safe Look at your arms, they’re not alone Look at your chest, you made it home Look at your legs, they carried you far Look at your feet, you are who you are I love you quiet, I love you strong I’ll listen forever—wake up or not [Outro] Say “wake up” again I’m already here Say “wake up” again I’ll still be near
This is a song made for someone who needs to see their own beauty instead of someone else’s. I think they know who they are.
