Hey baby brother

[Verse 1]
I hear you in the silence,
Like a storm behind closed doors.
You laugh like it’s nothing,
But I still hear something more.
I reach out slow, careful,
Not trying to pull you in.
Just hoping you might look up
And let me close the distance again.

[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t have to say it all,
You don’t have to be fine.
I’m just here in the quiet
If you ever change your mind.

[Chorus]
Hey—baby brother, I’m still here when you’re not.
No pressure, no answers, just whatever you’ve got.
If it’s heavy, if it’s nothing, if it’s all tangled up—
You don’t have to fall apart to be enough.

[Verse 2]
You joke like a shield now,
Like it keeps you safe from pain.
And I won’t try to break it
Or tell you to change.
But I see through the edges
When it slips for a second or two—
And I just want you to know
I’m not scared of you.

[Pre-Chorus]
You don’t have to explain it,
Or find the perfect words.
I can sit in the silence
If that’s all that works.

[Chorus]
Hey—baby brother, I’m still here when you’re not.
No pressure, no fixing, just whatever you’ve got.
If it’s messy, if it’s quiet, if it’s hard to explain—
You don’t have to smile through it to stay.

[Bridge]
I’m not here to pull you out
Or tell you who to be.
Just someone in the dark
Who you can lean on if you need.

[Outro]
So when the noise gets too heavy,
And you don’t know what to say—
I’ll be here, I’ll be steady,
I’m not going away.
