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 said,
your baby's not coming home.
Have you 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 can see.
So don't give up
on me.
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.
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 can see.
So don't give up
on me.
I know it can't be easy.
And what I'm asking is a lot.
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 can see.
So don't give up.
Baby, don't give up.
Don't give up
on me.
Mmmm.
