Gravity

Verse 1:

Used to see your face in every stranger's eyes

Now I see it in the bottom of this glass of lies

Chasing ghosts with poison, trying to feel less

But the numbness never fills this emptiness

Pre-Chorus:

They say grief comes in waves but I'm drowning in the tide

Lost myself somewhere between the pain and the high

Chorus:

But I'm learning how to breathe again

Learning how to feel without the medicine

Every sunrise is a second chance to rise

I'm fighting gravity, fighting gravity

To find who I'm supposed to be

Verse 2:

Found your letter in the drawer I couldn't face

"Be stronger than your demons" written in your grace

I've been running from your wisdom, hiding from the truth

That you'd hate to see me waste the life you couldn't choose

Pre-Chorus:

The pills can't bring you back, the smoke can't make you stay

But maybe I can honor you by living through the pain

Chorus:

So I'm learning how to breathe again

Learning how to feel without the medicine

Every sunrise is a second chance to rise

I'm fighting gravity, fighting gravity

To find who I'm supposed to be

Bridge:

One day clean, then two, then ten

I'm building myself up again

Your memory's not a weight to bear

It's wings to lift me from despair

Final Chorus:

Now I'm learning how to live again

Learning I am more than where I've been

Every sunrise I can see it in my eyes

I've beaten gravity, beaten gravity

I found who I'm meant to be

You'd be proud of me

Outro:

Used to see your face in every stranger's eyes

Now I see your strength in mine
