[Intro]
[Verse 1]
I was looking for a cure
In a heart that wasn’t mine
Holding on to broken pieces
Like they still could shine
I cried until the silence
Knew my name by heart
But tears don’t build the wings
Of a bird that’s torn apart
[Pre-Chorus]
So I face the pain
I let it say goodbye
I lost a part of me
But I learned how to survive
[Chorus]
I walk through the fire
I don’t turn around
I carry my scars
But I don’t stay on the ground
You were my weakness
You were my truth
But if love kills my soul
I have to choose me over you
I walk through the fire
And finally I’m free
The one who broke my heart
Won’t be the end of me
[Verse 2]
Behind every door there’s someone
Who knows this kind of rain
Smiling like they’re fine
While they’re drowning in the pain
We hurt the ones we love
Then we blame the night
Sometimes the deepest wounds
Are the ones we hide
And I forgive the past
But I won’t live there again
I can miss your voice
And still release your name
[Bridge]
Maybe I loved you
More than I loved myself
Maybe I lost me
Trying to save someone else
But the person I was
When you walked away
Is the one I found
At the end of the pain
[Final Chorus]
I walk through the fire
I don’t turn around
I lost my wings
But I learned to touch the ground
You were a chapter
Not the whole of my story
I buried the hurt
And I carried my glory
I walk through the fire
Now I can breathe
The one who broke my heart
Couldn’t break me
