endless light

I crawled through shadows deep as night

A hollow man with fading light

But I found strength in broken bones

A whisper said you're not alone

The bottle lied it told me tales

Of fleeting ships with windless sails

But now I’m steering clear of storms

In sober winds I am reborn

Oh I’ve tasted fire and walked through hell

But I’ve escaped the prison cell

I rise each day

A brand-new start

The chains are gone

I’ve found my heart

The nights were cold

My soul was raw

I lived in fear of every flaw

But scars are maps of where we’ve been

And now my journey can begin

The mirror shows a fighter’s face

A man who found his saving grace

With every step no looking back

The road ahead no hidden cracks

I build my hope with hands that shook

Rewrite my tale in an open book

The past’s a ghost

It haunts no more

The keys are mine

I’ve unlocked the door
