(Verse 1 - The First Shadow)
I remember when the world grew small,
Trapped inside a silent wall.
A sudden hold, a harsh command,
The cold betrayal of a familiar hand.
When someone close misused their power,
And stole the peace within that hour.
A secret panic I couldn't share,
Just frozen fear suspended in the air.
(Chorus 1 - Trapped and Sick)
I felt the walls close in and choke the air,
A sudden sickness I could not bare.
Trapped in a moment, stolen and cold,
A secret panic, deep and untold.
The sound of silence after the theft,
Is all I had left.
(Verse 2 - The Weight of Scars)
The pain came back, twice as deep,
A cruel reminder where the darkness hides.
I thought I had escaped the scar,
But found myself behind the same locked bar.
I carried the weight of what they stole from my soul,
A history that fought to take its toll.
I closed my eyes and whispered the plea,
To let this painful memory finally flee.
(Chorus 2 - The Lingering Pain)
But the ache is heavy, the wound won't close,
The heavy shadow of the ones who rose
To take what was not theirs to claim,
Leaving me nothing but the burning shame.
I carried the scars, the silent cost,
The weight of everything that I had lost.
(Verse 3 - The Contrast and The Safety)
Your gentle hand found a place of light,
But triggered fear from those dark nights.
I spoke the words, my voice felt weak,
"I need a moment," I had to speak.
You pulled away when I asked for space,
You put my heart first in that place.
You are the opposite of the lie,
The love that makes the shadows die.
If you were the stain, you wouldn't stop,
You would let my silent feelings drop.
(Chorus 3 - The Declaration of Bond and Safety)
That one action is all the proof I need.
You planted trust like a saving seed.
You are the safest place that I can stand,
Guided only by your gentle hand.
The bond we share is stronger than the lie,
Because you stopped and saved me with your eye.
(Bridge - Final Affirmation)
You sat and listened, gave your time,
To hear the stories of my climb.
You asked to know where pain resides,
To pin the spots where memory hides.
We chose to grow our bond instead,
In quiet trust, that comfort spread.
(Outro)
You are more important...
Than the stain they try to plaster on your name.
You are my love, you are my hearts and soul.
You heard my story... and made me whole.
(Fade out)
