[Verse 1]
Lunchroom echoes, whispers bite like venom
Backpacks heavy, not just books, we carry 'em
Corner of the gym, hiding from the taunts
Broken souls patched with quiet wants
[Prechorus]
He said, "They don’t know us, don’t know pain"
I said, "Let 'em talk, we’re not their game"
[Chorus]
Shadows in the hallway, where we stand
Bruised hearts holding, hand in hand
They called us names, we found a name
Love in the ashes of their cruel flame
[Verse 2]
Tears on her notebook, ink smears like rain
He wipes it away, "We’re not their shame"
She sketches stars in a sky they stole
He hums a tune, it fills the hole
[Prechorus]
"They can’t break what’s already torn"
"Our cracks let light in, we’re reborn"
[Chorus]
Shadows in the hallway, where we stand
Bruised hearts holding, hand in hand
They called us names, we found a name
Love in the ashes of their cruel flame
