Lost by Name

“Hold Me Through the Quiet” is a soulful ballad about emotional vulnerability, longing, and the struggle to hold on to love when everything feels uncertain. The narrator speaks to a lover who is drifting away, asking them to stay — not out of pride or fear, but from a deep need for connection and comfort.

The song explores the tension between strength and surrender: the narrator tries to appear composed but reveals deep emotional cracks. Each verse captures the feeling of being caught between letting go and hoping that love can still survive. The lyrics compare silence to a force that can either heal or destroy, depending on whether the lover chooses to stay.

Musically and emotionally, the song builds slowly — from quiet piano and soft strings to a full, cinematic swell — mirroring the heart’s rise and fall between despair and hope. Ultimately, it’s a plea for intimacy in its purest form: to be held through the quiet moments when love is tested, fragile, and real.

Lyrics: “Hold Me Through the Quiet”

Intro
In the hush before the morning breaks,
I trace your name in air that aches.
Every shadow hums your sound,
In this silence, love is found.

Verse 1
Your touch still lingers on my skin,
Like something holy wearing thin.
I reach for calm but fall instead,
Into the words we left unsaid.
You breathe a truth I cannot face,
A gentle wound I still embrace.

Verse 2
I build my walls, but they dissolve,
Each time your eyes begin to call.
The room is small, the night is wide,
And still, I’m lost on your side.
Between what’s real and what’s pretend,
We hold a love we can’t defend.

Pre-Chorus
Don’t ask me to be stronger now,
My heart forgot the why and how.

Chorus
Stay, don’t let the quiet win,
Don’t fade before the light begins.
I’d rather break than watch you go,
Your heartbeat is the only home I know.

Verse 3
You move like sorrow dressed in gold,
A promise trembling, turning cold.
The truth is kind, but love is cruel,
And I’m the dreamer, still the fool.
I chase your voice through falling rain,
Each echo spelling out your name.

Verse 4
I learned to love the ache you bring,
To find redemption in the sting.
Each tear becomes a quiet prayer,
That you might turn and still be there.
If love’s a war, then I’m your ground,
If peace is you, I can’t be found.

Bridge
We’re both undone, yet intertwined,
Two souls too close to be defined.
I’d give the night, I’d give the day,
If you’d just whisper, “I’ll stay.”

Interlude

Reprise
Stay, don’t let the quiet win,
Stay, till the morning pulls us in.
Our scars can sing, our hearts can mend,
If love is lost, let’s lose again.

Outro
And when the silence calls your name,
I’ll still be here, still the same.
Hold me through the quiet now,
And teach my soul to breathe somehow.

Hold Me Through the Quiet

“Headlights and Halos” is a Southern rock-blues anthem about redemption on the open road. Gritty guitars, highway thunder, and heartache collide as Frost Livingston sings about finding light in the darkness — chasing salvation between the lines of asphalt and sin. It’s a song for late-night drives, broken souls, and anyone who’s ever prayed behind the wheel.
