Testo When I Stand

Mm
Mm
Mm

I don't talk just to fill the air
I don't move just to prove I care
I don't scare when the sky turns black
I don't leave when it pushes back
I've seen men strong men lose their ground
Heard brave words fall apart out loud
I don't shake when the walls give in
I get quiet, and I dig in

When it gets heavy, when it gets loud
When everybody's running out
I don't run, mm, I don't bend

When I stand, I don't fall
When I hold, I hold it all
When it's dark, when it breaks
You can lean, I won't shake
When I stand
You're safe (Mm)
I've held hands in the worst of nights
Kept my word when it cost my pride
I don't fold when the truth cuts deep
I don't promise what I can't keep
I've been low, I've been tested hard
Lost a few, left a few scars
But I don't drown in what I face
I let it hit, then I brace

When it gets lonely, when it gets thin
When the fight's outside and within
I don't run, I don't bend

When I stand, I don't fall
When I hold, I hold it all
When it's dark, when it breaks
You can lean, I won't shake
When I stand, you're safe (Yeah)
Oh-oh (Oh)
Woah-oh

You don't need a lot of men
You need one who understands
Oh, it don't scare me
It makes me who I am

When I stand, I don't fall
When I hold, I hold it all
When it's dark, when it breaks
You can lean, I won't shake
When I stand

Oh, you're safe (Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
You're safe (Oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
