When I Stand Songtext
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 strong men lose their ground
Heard brave words fall apart out loud
I don’t shake when the walls give in
I get quiet… then I dig in
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 strong men lose their ground
Heard brave words fall apart out loud
I don’t shake when the walls give in
I get quiet… then I dig in
When it gets heavy
When it gets loud
When everybody’s running out
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
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
You don’t need a louder man
You need one who understands
The weight 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
You’re safe.
When it gets loud
When everybody’s running out
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
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
You don’t need a louder man
You need one who understands
The weight 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
You’re safe.
