Verse 1
There’s a light on in the hallway
But this house still feels dark
I keep moving through the motions
With a heavy, tired heart
Every day’s another number
Another fire to put out
And I smile when people ask me
What I’ve been thinking about
⸻
Pre-Chorus
But the silence gets loud
When the night rolls in
And I don’t know where to start again
⸻
Chorus
I’m still learning how to breathe
Without you next to me
Still losing sleep
To memories I should leave behind
Trying to be strong
Trying to move on
But there’s ghosts between the lines
Of this life
⸻
Verse 2
I see your name light up my phone
And my whole world shifts
Funny how a single moment
Can still hurt like this
Everybody says “keep going”
Like it’s easy when you’re tired
When your mind becomes a prison
And your heart’s a live wire
⸻
Pre-Chorus
And I’m so worn down
From carrying this weight
But I still wake up and face the day
⸻
Chorus
I’m still learning how to breathe
Without you next to me
Still losing sleep
To memories I should leave behind
Trying to be strong
Trying to move on
But there’s ghosts between the lines
Of this life
⸻
Bridge
Maybe healing isn’t lightning
Maybe it’s just surviving long enough
To see the morning
Without falling apart
⸻
Final Chorus
I’m still learning how to live
With all the things I miss
Still finding pieces of myself
In the dark
And maybe someday
This won’t feel so hard
Till then I’ll keep driving
Through these city lights alone
With ghosts between the lines
Of this life.
