When I was lost, I was searching
For someone to be the light to follow through the dark
No one was there
I promise you when you're lost, I will save you
I wanna be the one to lead you through the dark
I'll never leave you
I promise you won't be alone

Looking back at it, I should have fallen apart
I can tell you the story of how I got these scars
I was young, all alone, heart turning to stone
No attention, no love, all I heard was, "Hold on"
(Hold on, hold on, hold on)

It felt like more than I could handle
I never learned, I never learned from example

When I was lost, I was searching
For someone to be the light to follow through the dark
No one was there
I promise you when you're lost, I will save you
I wanna be the one to lead you through the dark
I'll never leave you

I promise you won't be alone
(Alone, alone, alone, alone)
I promise you won't be alone

If you write a song, I'll listen a million times
And if I see that you're drowning, I will be your lifeline
You'll never be perfect, just know I understand
You've already shown me what it means to be a man
You can tell me anything, I won't always agree
But I'll be glad you didn't bury it inside like me

When I was lost, I was searching
For someone to be the light to follow through the dark
No one was there
So I promise you when you're lost, I will save you
I wanna be the one to lead you through the dark
I'll never leave you

These are my wounds to overcome
Even if the fight has just begun, I have won
These are my wounds to overcome
Even if the fight has just begun, I have won

When I was lost, I was searching
For someone to be the light to follow through the dark
No one was there
So I promise you when you're lost, I will save you
I wanna be the one to lead you through the dark
I'll never leave you
I promise you won't be alone
(Alone, alone, alone, alone)
