[Verse 1]
If you've ever held somebody
Felt their last breath
Walked into danger knowing
You were just one step from death
If you've ever knocked on someone's door
And changed their life with those few words
When you say, "Your baby's not coming home"

[Chorus]
If you've seen what I've seen
If you've been where I've been
If you stood in my shoes
Then you might understand
There's a battle that I fight each day
That no one else could see
So don't give up on me

[Verse 2]
When I'm staring in the distance
And I'm really somewhere else
Well, that's just me reliving
Some day I spent in hell
So when I'm angry for no reason
When those demons pull me close
That's when I need you the most
[Chorus]
If you've seen what I've seen
If you've been where I've been
If you stood in my shoes
Then you might understand
There's a battle that I fight each day
That no one else could see
So don't give up on me

[Bridge]
I know it can't be easy
And what I'm asking is a lot

[Chorus]
But if you've seen what I've seen
If you've been where I've been
If you stood in my shoes
Then you might understand
There's a battle that I fight each day
That no one else could see
So don't give up
Baby, don't give up
Don't give up on me

[Outro]
Mm
