The Road May Turn Kinder

[Verse 1]
You wake with the weight of a door that won't move
Hands on the handle, nothing to prove
The calendar's marked with a red fading line
But you keep one small reason alive

[Pre-Chorus]
Every hard mile taught your feet where to land
Every closed road put a map in your hands
Don't call it the end when the signal goes blue
There's a morning still waiting for you

[Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, you haven't seen what's next
The road may turn kinder beyond this wreck
One more breath, one more step through the rain
You stayed long enough to begin again
Hold on, hold on, let the old fear pass
A better day might be closer than you ask
If you can survive this night and see it through
The future has a place for you

[Verse 2]
You lost what you built in a season of storms
Slept with your coat on to keep yourself warm
The note on the table said, try once more
So you wrote your name on the kitchen floor

[Pre-Chorus]
There are scars that remember the shape of the fall
But they don't get to measure you all
Let the doubt be loud, let it rattle the frame
You are still here, and that changes the game

[Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, you haven't seen what's next
The road may turn kinder beyond this wreck
One more breath, one more step through the rain
You stayed long enough to begin again
Hold on, hold on, let the old fear pass
A better day might be closer than you ask
If you can survive this night and see it through
The future has a place for you

[Bridge]
When the engine stalls, walk beside it
When the high road breaks, keep climbing
You don't need a promise carved in stone
Just enough strength to get back home

[Instrumental]

[Final Chorus]
Hold on, hold on, you haven't seen what's next
The road may turn kinder beyond this wreck
One more breath, one more step through the rain
You stayed long enough to begin again
Hold on, hold on, let the old fear pass
A better day might be closer than you ask
If you can survive this night and see it through
The future has a place for you

[Outro]
Stay for the next page
Stay for the next view
The world is not finished
With you
