[Intro]
In the shadowed corners of my mind,
Where the echoes haunt, and the memories grind,
I feel the pressure, I’m losing my hold,
Staring deep into the dark, feeling cold.
[Verse 1]
My world feels like I’m spiraling down,
In a black hole, lost without a sound,
Shaving razor, cutting through the haze,
In the hot shower, I count my days.
Chasing sins in the fading light,
Deciding to fight or just give up the fight.
[Pre-Chorus]
But daylight comes, breaking through the fears,
Checked out of that hotel, I'm standing here.
Got a babysitter for the pup at home,
Rushed to the ER, I'm not alone.
[Chorus]
I’m fighting through the darkness,
With shadows in my heart,
I’ve seen the breaking dawn,
But it’s tearing me apart.
Running from my past, I can’t escape,
Breathing in this truck stop, trying to reshape.
[Bridge]
In the night terrors where I used to drown,
Moving through this town, it pulls me down.
Homeless in my mind, searching for a home,
Sitting here alone, I can't find my own.
[Verse 2]
The flashbacks hit like summer rain,
Every corner turned, it’s all so plain.
Roads I traveled that went nowhere,
Battles I fought, the desperate air.
[Pre-Chorus]
But daylight comes, breaking through the fears,
Checked out of that hotel, I'm standing here.
With each breath I take, I'm holding tight,
Finding strength in the struggle, reclaiming the light.
[Chorus]
I’m fighting through the darkness,
With shadows in my heart,
I’ve seen the breaking dawn,
But it’s tearing me apart.
Running from my past, I can’t escape,
Breathing in this truck stop, trying to reshape.
[Outro]
So here I sit, a warrior on the run,
With dreams of peace, a fight still to be won.
With every mile I drive, I heal the pain,
In this life of shadows, I'm finding my name.
