[Intro]
(Whispers)
Take a breath, hold on tight,
Through the shadows, into the light.
[Verse 1]
March was a battlefield, each day was a trial,
Echoes of silence, weariness compiled.
Scars on my heart, yeah, they run deep,
But I’m learning to stand, not just fall asleep.
[Pre-Chorus]
Flashbacks and terrors, they haunt my nights,
But I rise from the ashes, reclaim my rights.
The whispers grow quieter, I drown them in fight,
I won’t let the past keep me bound in its bite.
[Chorus]
Stand up, take the challenge, let the past unwind,
Not a ghost in the shadows, I’m leaving behind.
With every tear I've shed, I’m stronger each day,
Won't let the memories carry me away.
[Verse 2]
A crowded room can feel like a cage,
The scent of old memories comes back to wage.
Driving by the spot, where it all broke apart,
I breathe through the pain, reclaiming my heart.
[Pre-Chorus]
Each trigger reminds me of battles I fought,
But no longer a puppet, I’m breaking the knot.
The night terrors fade as I start to let go,
Turn the key in my heart, let the healing flow.
[Chorus]
Stand up, take the challenge, let the past unwind,
Not a ghost in the shadows, I’m leaving behind.
With every tear I've shed, I’m stronger each day,
Won't let the memories carry me away.
[Bridge]
Embrace the darkness, face the fears,
Transforming all my pain into strength through the years.
These scars hold a story, but they don’t define,
The warrior I've become, refocused my mind.
[Chorus]
Stand up, take the challenge, let the past unwind,
Not a ghost in the shadows, I’m leaving behind.
With every tear I've shed, I’m stronger each day,
Won't let the memories carry me away.
[Outro]
(Whispers)
Stop! You don’t control me anymore,
With every breath, I take, I open new doors.
