Stay Until the Morning Finds

[Intro]
Hold on through the weather
Keep your hands upon the wheel
The road is changing under you
But change is how you heal

[Verse 1]
You count the cracks beside the window
You mark the miles you couldn't spare
A little dust across your jacket
A stubborn heartbeat in the air

The gate is locked, the map is useless
Your plans are folded in the rain
But every breath you keep collecting
Is proof you haven't lost the way

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't trade tomorrow for the bruise
Don't let the hard night choose

[Chorus]
Stay until the morning finds you
Stay until the colors start
There is more beyond the breaking
There is room for a changing heart
Keep your feet beneath the shaking
Keep your name inside the flame
If you live to see what's waiting
It may not be the same
It may be better than you came

[Verse 2]
The phone goes quiet on the table
The old familiar doors all close
You think the world has finished turning
Then feel a current through your bones

One small decision in the hallway
One last step you almost miss
The future doesn't need perfection
It only needs you present in it

[Pre-Chorus]
Don't trade tomorrow for the bruise
Don't let the hard night choose

[Chorus]
Stay until the morning finds you
Stay until the colors start
There is more beyond the breaking
There is room for a changing heart
Keep your feet beneath the shaking
Keep your name inside the flame
If you live to see what's waiting
It may not be the same
It may be better than you came

[Bridge]
Let the old fear lose its language
Let the silence lose its weight
You are not the worst thing that happened
You are still arriving at the gate

Count the pulse, release the answer
Leave the wreckage where it fell
Every second you survive here
Is a story time can tell

[Final Chorus]
Stay until the morning finds you
Stay until the colors start
There is more beyond the breaking
There is room for a changing heart
Keep your feet beneath the shaking
Keep your name inside the flame
If you live to see what's waiting
It may not be the same
It may be better than you came

[Outro]
Hold on through the weather
You are closer than you know
The next page hasn't opened
But you don't have to let it go
