[Verse 1]
Wake up on the floor again
Taste of metal
Dust on my tongue
Every little thought a loaded pedal
Yeah it cuts
Yeah it stuns
Heart racing in a quiet room
Shadows crawling up the wall
Every breath feels
Way too small
[Pre-Chorus]
But there's a flicker in the wreckage
Tiny spark under my skin
If this is all that's left of me
Then this is where I begin
[Chorus]
I'm breathing again
Out of the ashes
I come back swinging
Harder than the crashes
You tried to break me
Tore me apart
But all of this pressure
Forged a stronger heart
I'm breathing again
Breathing again
[Verse 2]
White noise in a paper chest
Thought I’d drown in every wave
Hands shaking
But I’m done trying to behave
For the fear
For the grave
Worn scars like a leather jacket
Yeah they burn
But they fit just right
I’m still here
And I’m ready for the fight
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the tremor in my breathing
But that’s the sound of letting go
If this is all that’s promised me
Then I’ll make it explode
[Chorus]
I'm breathing again
Out of the ashes
I come back swinging
Harder than the crashes
You tried to break me
Tore me apart
But all of this pressure
Forged a stronger heart
I'm breathing again
Breathing again
[Bridge]
Break me?
You couldn’t break me
You only shook these chains loose (oh)
Save me?
I had to save me
Now every step’s a breakthrough
[Chorus]
I'm breathing again
Out of the ashes
I come back swinging
Harder than the crashes
You tried to break me
Tore me apart
But all of this pressure
Forged a stronger heart
I'm breathing again
Breathing again
(come back swinging)
Breathing again
