(Verse 1)
The weight is crashing on my shoulders,
Feels like the sky is fallin’ in.
Your ghost is walkin’ through this empty house,
Every room reminds me where we’ve been.
I’m holdin’ on to shadows,
A fistful of broken nights—
And every memory cuts a little deeper
When I reach for you and you’re not by my side.
(Pre-Chorus)
I’ve been standin’ in the darkness,
Tryin’ to breathe, tryin’ to believe…
But the storm keeps gettin’ louder,
And it’s tearing at the pieces left of me.
(Chorus)
I’m lookin’ in the mirror
At a man I barely know.
Been facin’ down the barrel
Of the pain I never show.
But even when the world is breakin’
And I’m fallin’ to my knees…
There’s a spark inside the ashes
Whisperin’ I’m stronger than this bleed.
(Verse 2)
Your goodbye rang out like thunder,
Left a hollow in my chest.
I kept reachin’ for the bottle,
Tryin’ to quiet all the stress.
But the truth keeps climbin’ higher,
Like a fire I can’t outrun—
And I’m standin’ on the edge of every moment
Wonderin’ how I’m gonna greet the sun.
(Pre-Chorus)
It’s the fear and the fury,
It’s the weight of losin’ you…
But my heart keeps beatin’ even
When I don’t know what to do.
(Chorus)
I’m lookin’ in the mirror
At a man I barely know.
Been facin’ down the barrel
Of the pain I never show.
But even when the world is breakin’
And I’m fallin’ to my knees…
There’s a spark inside the ashes
Whisperin’ I’m stronger than this bleed.
(Bridge)
And I hear a voice inside me say,
“This darkness doesn’t own you—
You can rise, you can stand,
You can make it through.”
So I lift my eyes from the shadows,
And I breathe in one more try…
’Cause even when I feel like dyin’,
There’s a part of me that still wants to fight.
(Final Chorus)
I’m lookin’ in the mirror
At the man I’m meant to be.
Still facin’ down the barrel
Of the storms inside of me.
But even when the world is breakin’,
And I’m fallin’ to my knees…
There’s a hope inside the wreckage
And it’s pullin’ me back to my feet.
