Verse 1
I used to think the darkness never ended
Like pain was all my life would ever be
Every road I took felt cold and endless
Every mirror showed a stranger back at me
But healing came in quiet little moments
Not fireworks, not some grand escape
Just slowly learning I deserved tomorrow
And it’s okay to take life day by day
Pre-Chorus
Now the air feels lighter in my lungs
Like maybe I survived for something
Chorus
There’s peace after pain
Light after rain
A new sunrise waiting with my name
And even after everything I lost
I’m still standing here, heart beating soft
The future used to scare me
Now it shines so bright
There’s peace after pain
And I’m finally alive
Verse 2
Late night drives with music low and glowing
Windows down, salt air against my skin
Laughing with the people who still love me
Learning how to trust myself again
I know there’ll still be days that feel heavy
Memories don’t disappear overnight
But I don’t have to drown inside them anymore
I can let them pass like stars across the sky
Pre-Chorus
And every scar I tried to hide
Now reminds me I survived
Chorus
There’s peace after pain
Light after rain
A new sunrise waiting with my name
And even after everything I lost
I’m still standing here, heart beating soft
The future used to scare me
Now it shines so bright
There’s peace after pain
And I’m finally alive
Bridge
No more living like I’m already gone
No more searching for myself in the wrong arms
I got dreams again
I got hope again
And for the first time
I believe in what’s ahead
Final Chorus
There’s peace after pain
Warmth after cold
A beautiful life still waiting to unfold
And even if the road gets hard sometimes
I know there’s still so much ahead of me to find
The girl who cried through endless nights
Finally sees the morning light
There’s peace after pain
And the future looks bright
