Verse 1
Another night, another war inside my head,
Same ghosts screaming, wishing I was dead.
Mirror full of cracks, and I wear every line,
Smile for the world while I’m bleeding out inside.
I’m so damn tired of carrying this weight,
Holding back hell with a smile on my face.
Everyone says “just breathe, you’ll be okay,”
But they don’t hear the monsters when I lay awake.
Pre-Chorus
I’m hanging by a thread,
But I ain’t done yet—
Chorus
I refuse to die in silence,
I refuse to let this darkness win.
Yeah, I’ve danced with every devil,
Still got fire under my skin.
I’ve been down on my knees,
Begging God, “please just let me breathe,”
But I refuse—
Yeah, I fucking refuse
To let go of me.
Verse 2
There were nights I drove too fast, too far,
Screaming at the moon from the front seat of my car.
Thinking maybe if I vanished, they’d all be fine,
But something in my chest kept screaming “not this time.”
So I punched through walls,
And I drank through pain,
Tried to drown the thunder
Running through my veins.
But every scar reminds me
I survived that storm—
So why the hell would I quit now?
I’ve been reborn.
Pre-Chorus
Yeah, I’m broken, I confess,
But broken doesn’t mean less—
Chorus
I refuse to die in silence,
I refuse to let this darkness win.
Yeah, I’ve danced with every devil,
Still got fire under my skin.
I’ve been down on my knees,
Begging God, “please just let me breathe,”
But I refuse—
Yeah, I fucking refuse
To let go of me.
Bridge
If pain is all I’ve ever known,
Then I’ll build a kingdom from broken bones.
If hell wants me, tell it get in line—
I’ve been surviving my whole damn life.
Final Chorus
I refuse to fade to nothing,
I refuse to be another name.
Yeah, I’ve walked through the worst of it,
And I’m still standing in the flames.
So let the whole world see,
You won’t take what’s left of me—
I refuse—
Yeah, I fucking refuse
To set myself free
By giving up on me.
