Turning Back the Light

[Intro]
Oh, if I could turn back time
Save myself from the pain, from the climb
To that dark, twisted day
I'd rewrite every single way

[Verse 1]
The moment our paths crossed, I didn't see
The storm that was brewing, the dark decree
Thought I was safe, blind to the curse
Diving into a life that only got worse

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I wish I could undo
Every step that led me through
A shadowed life, a silent plea
Lost in the chains, I couldn't see

[Chorus]
If I could turn back time
I'd walk away from that crime
Never marry, never pretend
Break the chains, let healing begin
If I could go back, I would
Rewrite the story I never should
Free from her dark, cunning sway
Save my soul, find a better way

[Verse 2]
The bargain signed, a price I paid
A moment of fear, a choice I made
Hoping to escape the night
But it only fueled her darker flight

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I wish I could undo
Every step that led me through
A shadowed life, a silent plea
Lost in the chains, I couldn't see

[Chorus]
If I could turn back time
I'd walk away from that crime
Never marry, never pretend
Break the chains, let healing begin
If I could go back, I would
Rewrite the story I never should
Free from her dark, cunning sway
Save my soul, find a better way

[Bridge]
Light now calls my name
Breaking free from shame
No more tears to fall
Standing tall after all

[Outro]
If I could turn back time
I'd find my way, reclaim what's mine
Leave the darkness far behind
And learn to heal, redefine

Emotional acoustic ballad, heartfelt vocals, soft guitar, subtle piano
