[Verse 1]
I built a house out of silence,
Nailed the walls with regret.
Painted over broken memories
That I still can’t forget.
I’ve danced with my demons,
Let 'em whisper in my ear,
Told myself I’m fine
While I drank away the fear.
---
[Chorus]
I’m chained to a past that won’t let go,
Runnin’ from a high I can't outgrow.
These storms don’t pass, they circle back—
I wear the thunder like a scar across my back.
If there's still a spark inside this cold, worn soul,
Let it burn, let it burn, and make me whole.
---
[Verse 2]
There’s a kid in the mirror,
Eyes gone dim, heart gone cold.
Used to dream about tomorrow—
Now he just tries to grow old.
I've lied to lovers and to God,
Said I’m better than I am.
But the truth comes callin’ every night
Like a needle in my hand.
---
[Chorus]
I’m chained to a past that won’t let go,
Runnin’ from a high I can't outgrow.
These storms don’t pass, they circle back—
I wear the thunder like a scar across my back.
If there's still a spark inside this cold, worn soul,
Let it burn, let it burn, and make me whole.
---
[Bridge – Spoken or Sung Softly]
I don’t need forgiveness,
I just wanna feel again.
Been walkin' through this world
Like a shadow without skin.
If this pain’s the only truth I own,
At least I’ll die knowin’ I was never alone.
---
[Final Chorus]
I'm chained to a past, but I still breathe,
Broken, yeah, but I still believe.
These storms don’t own me like they did before,
I ain’t runnin'—I’m just walkin' through the war.
If there's still a spark inside this cold, worn soul,
Let it burn…
Let it burn…
And make me whole.
