Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] Once a gentle soul, softly glowin’ in the night Warmest heart I ever knew, bathed in love and light [Verse 1] I used to give my smile freely, almost too much to bear Carried everyone’s burden, with an open, tender stare Thought kindness was my armor, a shield against the dark But I learned the pain that comes with loving, leaves a mark [Pre-Chorus] Now I’m shutting out the echoes, shutting out the cries Turning off the tenderness, no more compromise [Chorus] I’ve turned off the kindness, let the cold winds blow Built my fortress high, where no feelings go Forget the pain, forget the tears—living just for me Hell with the world, I’m finally free [Verse 2] They say show compassion, but I’ve tasted bitter truth Thought I was strong enough, to withstand the ruthlessness No more gentle whispers, no more hero’s part Just a shell of a man, hardened and apart [Pre-Chorus] Now I’m shutting out the echoes, shutting out the cries Turning off the tenderness, no more compromise [Chorus] I’ve turned off the kindness, let the cold winds blow Built my fortress high, where no feelings go Forget the pain, forget the tears—living just for me Hell with the world, I’m finally free [Bridge] No more holding back, no more compromises Drowning out the remorse, silence in my eyes A new world now, carved from icy stone Lost every piece of who I’ve known [Outro] Once was love, now just a ghost of what I knew Living for myself, in the cold, forever true
