Fire and Breath

[Intro]
Breathing in, breathing out, caught between fire and air
Every day a new battle, a silent fight I share
Faces look but don't see, words fall through the cracks
Living with a storm inside, no time to look back

[Verse 1]
Some days I feel like I’m walking through smoke, feeling lost
Other days I breathe easy, no matter the cost
Telling my story feels like speaking a different tongue
Searching for understanding, but the words come undone

[Pre-Chorus]
It hurts when they don’t see, don’t hear what I really say
Living with an invisible weight, pushing me away
But I keep fighting, keep hoping, keep trying to explain
Inside this fragile body, there's fire and pain

[Chorus]
Fire in my lungs, fighting to survive
Breathe in the hope, fight to stay alive
Living with the fire, yet longing for calm
Can you understand me? Can you hear my alarm?

[Bridge]
Sometimes anger rises, quick and fierce
It's the only thing I feel clearly, the pain I bear appears
But beneath the wrath, there's a desperate plea
For empathy, for connection, to truly see

[Outro]
So I’ll keep on breathing, keep on fighting through the dark
Hoping someday someone will hear my silent bark
My story's not simple, my battles are real
Living with fire and hope, that's all I feel when I’m the only one who can see the world in a different light 
I am still alive, still breathing, still fighting the pain that no one else can see or feel 
So when I speak about my own pain and suffering that I carry inside of me so the world better be listening to me
when I have been suffering through this pain for a long time now with no one to hear my voice, or share words of wisdom, encouragement, and support for the invisible war I’ve been fighting inside of me
