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
