"Shattered, Not Gone"

Verse 1:

I used to carry light inside my chest

Now it flickers like a dying breath

People say I'm strong — they don't know

Every night I fall alone

I scream inside but no one hears

These eyes have cried a thousand years

I reach for faith with broken hands

But nothing ever goes as planned

Chorus:

My soul’s been torn, been bruised, been burned

Left with lessons I never learned

But I'm still breathing, still holding on

Even when the flame feels gone

I'm shattered, but I’m not gone

No, I’m not gone

Verse 2:

They don’t see the war I fight each day

Smiling just to keep them all away

I gave them love, I gave them grace

Now I can't even find my face

My heart’s a map of every scar

Of who I was and where you are

But through the cracks, there's still a spark

Even in this endless dark

Chorus:

My soul’s been torn, been bruised, been burned

Left with lessons I never learned

But I'm still breathing, still holding on

Even when the flame feels gone

I'm shattered, but I’m not gone

No, I’m not gone

Bridge:

So if you're broken just like me

Don't hide the pain, just let it be

We're not alone in all this grief

And even silence can still speak

Final Chorus:

My soul’s been torn, been bruised, been burned

But somewhere deep, that fire still yearns

To rise again, though all feels wrong

To find the place where I belong

I'm shattered, but I’m not gone

No, I’m not gone
