There are nights when the world won't sleep
And she's awake while the silence screams
Trading rest for courage and tears
Holding fear no one else hears

She knows the sound of every cry
Before the Sun learns how to rise
She'd take the pain if she could choose
So they would never have to lose

She bends, she breaks, but doesn't fall
She stands unseen behind it all

If strength could bleed, if hearts could fight
Hers would glow through every night

If love had hands, they'd look like hers
Holding the dark, shaping the world
If hope had a name, it wouldn't shout
But it would stay when all backs out
Nothing would stand, nothing would be
Without this love we clearly see

She carries years behind her smile
Dreams paused somewhere along the miles
Between who she was and who she became
She learned to carry both the flame

She doesn't ask the sky for more
She just keeps walking through the storm
Every step, a silent vow
She'll carry them somehow

She learned that love is not the rest
It's giving all when there's nothing left

It's choosing others over self
And finding strength where no one else felt

If love had hands, they'd look like hers
Holding the dark, shaping the world
If hope had a name, it wouldn't shout
But it would stay when all backs out
Nothing would stand, nothing would be
Without this love we clearly see

Every sleepless night she gave away
Every tear she never let fall
Quiet prayers inside her chest
Love answering every call

One day they'll know what words can't say
Every breath she gave away

If love could speak, it wouldn't cry
It would whisper: You'll survive
And even when she fades from view
Her love will always pull them through
Nothing was chance, nothing was free
Everything lives because of she
