You found me in the rain
With my shoes all worn through
I laughed like I was fine
But I was lying to you
Got a drawer full of letters
And a heart full of cracks
Still I wore my old smile
Like a paper crown
And I know I know what it means to fall
But your hand on mine makes the whole world slow
Hold me up
Hold me up when I start to break
Hold me up
Hold me up till the night turns gold
We were never made to carry it alone
Hold me up
Hold me up don't let me go
You pulled me from the water
With a look in your eyes
Said the storm can have the thunder
But it can't keep my light
Now the scars on my shoulders
Don't feel quite so heavy
When you say my name
Like you still believe me
And I know I know we've got far to go
But your hand on mine turns the cold to glow
Hold me up
Hold me up when I start to break
Hold me up
Hold me up till the night turns gold
We were never made to carry it alone
Hold me up
Hold me up don't let me go

If I slip stay near
If I fall stay close
I've been brave for years
But I need this most
One more step, one more try
One more step through the smoke
If I lose my way, be the road I know
Hold me up
Hold me up when I start to break
Hold me up
Hold me up till the night turns gold
We were never made to carry it alone
Hold me up
Hold me up don't let me go
Hold me up
Hold me up when I start to break
Hold me up
Hold me up till the night turns gold
We were never made to carry it alone
Hold me up
Hold me up don't let me go
