Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Coffee cools in my hand
Already braced for the burn
Shadows in an empty room
Make my heartbeat turn
You raise your voice to say my name
I flinch like it’s a fault line
Nothing even happened
Still I’m halfway to a landslide
[Pre-Chorus]
Who taught my body
To jump at every sound?
Who drew the map
That keeps me circling around?
[Chorus]
I’m tired of living like the war’s not over
Sleeping in armor I can’t take off
Every small moment feels like a boulder
Crashing down
Crashing down
I get lost
But I’m learning how to breathe through the thunder
Tell the trembling in my bones
“You’re safe this time”
Yeah
I’m powerful
Even when I’m shaking
I’m not my conditioned mind
[Verse 2]
Door slams two floors down
My chest thinks it’s the end
You just set your keys down
I’m already on defense
Every silence feels like danger
Every smile could hide a fist
I apologize for breathing
Like I asked for this
[Pre-Chorus]
Who wired my heartbeat
To warning siren songs?
Who made me think that
Every feeling must be wrong?
[Chorus]
I’m tired of living like the war’s not over
Sleeping in armor I can’t take off
Every small moment feels like a boulder
Crashing down
Crashing down
I get lost
But I’m learning how to breathe through the thunder
Tell the trembling in my bones
“You’re safe this time”
Yeah
I’m powerful
Even when I’m shaking
I’m not my conditioned mind
[Bridge]
This is not a weakness
This is how I survived
Every twitch
Every flinch
Kept a little bit of me alive
Now I stand in the daylight
Talk back to the fear in my eyes
“You don’t get to drive me
You’re just passing by” (passing by)
[Chorus]
I’m tired of living like the war’s not over
Sleeping in armor I can’t take off
Every small moment feels like a boulder
Crashing down
Crashing down
I get lost
But I’m learning how to breathe through the thunder
Tell the trembling in my bones
“You’re safe this time”
Yeah
I’m powerful
Even when I’m shaking
I’m not my conditioned mind
[Outro]
Every breath a quiet victory
Every day I choose this fight
I still hear the echoes
But they fade behind my light
