[Intro]
Shadows crawl in memories, sharp and cold
Broken bottles, stories told
Blood on the walls, echoes behind
Lost in a nightmare, trapped in my mind
[Verse 1]
Thought he was sweet, back when I was just nineteen
A mask he wore, so convincing, so mean
His words like knives, his touch like fire
Thought I was stronger, but I was so tired
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I see clearer, hair and eyes revealing
The scars, the damage, the pain I'm healing
A lonely man, so broken inside
Loving his shadow, where I once did hide
[Chorus]
Broken bottles and blood on the walls
Black eyes telling all, he made me crawl
From love to survival, from hurt to fight
Turning darkness into light
[Verse 2]
He loved to belittle, he loved to degrade
Fed on my tears, oh how he played
A sad lonely echo, fifty-five years old
Lost in his hatred, cold and so bold
[Pre-Chorus]
But I’ve found strength in the breakage and pain
No more silence, no more shame
I see through the lies, to the truth underneath
A new dawn rises, I finally breathe
[Chorus]
Broken bottles and blood on the walls
Black eyes telling all, he made me crawl
From love to survival, from hurt to fight
Turning darkness into light
[Bridge]
This memories haunt, but I won’t drown
Rising from shadows, shedding this crown
My story, my scars, my tears, my fight
Turning darkness into light
[Outro]
Oh, broken bottles, blood-stained walls
Once I fell, but I will stand tall
The past is a shadow, a story I tell
From pain to power, breaking the spell
