It never started like a dream, We were thrown into the deep end fast. Two strangers in a world shut down, Trying to build something that couldn’t breathe yet. You whispered “God knows I tried” When the nights were pulling us apart, And I was stitching quiet fractures In the corners of my heart. Pre‑Chorus We walked that razor‑thin line Where love and hurt feel almost the same— A fragile devotion trembling Under everything we couldn’t name. Chorus But oh, we tried, again and again, ’Cause losing you was always worse Than fighting in the end. Peace got shorter, storms grew strong, We kept returning even when we knew It all felt wrong. And every flight I took, I cried For what we couldn’t fix, Dreaming of the version of us That somehow still exists. Verse 2 You carried more weight than anyone saw, And I kept trying to hold the pieces still. We weren’t built for all that pressure, But neither of us knew how to let go. We weren’t built for all that hurting, Yet we held on out of fear— Silence felt like dying, And goodbye was never clear. Pre‑Chorus Two people who weren’t fighters But fought with everything— Holding on to burning walls Instead of letting go the thing. Chorus But oh, we tried, again and again, ’Cause losing you was always worse Than facing how it ends. Peace grew shorter, storms grew strong, But loving you still feels like home In places I belong. And every flight I take, I’m caught In all the could‑have‑beens, Crying for the echo Of the love that still lives in. Bridge Up in the clouds I faced the truth I never dared to say— I was far from perfect too, But you were perfect in your way. And every mile between us Only made it more surreal— How something so impossible Could still be what I feel.
