I was running on empty streets at midnight
Neon signs and a heart full of maybes
Every promise felt borrowed, not mine
I was loud on the outside, fading
I tried to disappear in the crowd
Tried to be someone safer somehow
But the silence was screaming too loud
And I couldn’t turn it down
I’m still breathing, even when it hurts
Still believing, even at my worst
I’ve been breaking, I’ve been bent
But I’m not done yet
I’m still standing in the fire and smoke
Still reaching when I’m losing hope
If this is all I get
Then I’ll make it count
Yeah, I’m still breathing now
I’ve been carrying ghosts on my shoulders
Every “what if” like a loaded gun
But the cracks in my chest are showing
That the light gets in when you run
I don’t need to be fearless tonight
I just need to stay in the fight
Even stars learn how to shine
After the darkest nights
I’m still breathing, even when it hurts
Still believing, even at my worst
I’ve been breaking, I’ve been bent
But I’m not done yet
I’m still standing in the fire and smoke
Still reaching when I’m losing hope
If this is all I get
Then I’ll make it count
Yeah, I’m still breathing now
Maybe I’m not healed
Maybe I’m a mess
But every scar I feel
Is proof I’m not dead yet
I don’t need wings to fly
Just a reason to try
I’m still breathing, hear my heart tonight
Still beating like it’s asking why
I’ve been lost, I’ve been left
But I’m not done yet
I’m still rising from the ash and doubt
Still shouting what I couldn’t shout
If this is all I get
Then I’ll make it count
Yeah, I’m still breathing now
Still breathing now
Still breathing now
