I was just a kid, too small for the weight,
Her words were like fire, and I couldn’t escape.
She never saw me, I was just a ghost,
Too lost to be saved, I needed someone most.
But the nights got louder, and the days turned gray,
I learned to keep quiet, never find my way.
No one to turn to, no arms to hold me tight,
Just the echo of her voice and the long, cold nights.
(Pre-Chorus)
Now I’m learning to breathe in the space,
Trying to find a way to heal the place.
I’ve got these scars, but they’re mine to keep,
Fighting through the silence, while I learn to sleep.
(Chorus)
I’m finding peace from the pain you left behind,
Took the long road, but I’m learning how to climb.
Fighting for my life, I’m learning to be strong,
In the quiet of recovery, I’m finding where I belong.
(Verse 2)
Found solace in the needle, thought it’d take the sting,
But it only left me broken, chasing after a thing.
I tried to forget, tried to numb all the noise,
But it just made me emptier, it stole all my joy.
So I’m breaking these chains, learning how to fall,
Rebuilding from the pieces, picking up it all.
It’s a slow road back, but I’m finding light,
In the cracks of my soul, I’m learning to fight.
(Pre-Chorus)
I’m healing each day, I’m finding my pace,
Learning to let go of the past, of that space.
The weight is still there, but I’m learning to breathe,
Fighting through the silence, learning to believe.
(Chorus)
I’m finding peace from the pain you left behind,
Took the long road, but I’m learning how to climb.
Fighting for my life, I’m learning to be strong,
In the quiet of recovery, I’m finding where I belong.
(Bridge)
I’ll never be the guy you thought I’d be,
But I’m finally free, learning to see.
The pain was my shadow, but now it’s my light,
I’m standing tall, taking back the fight.
(Chorus)
I’m finding peace from the pain you left behind,
Took the long road, but I’m learning how to climb.
Fighting for my life, I’m learning to be strong,
In the quiet of recovery, I’m finding where I belong.
(Outro)
I’m healing, I’m breathing, I’m finding my way,
Each step’s a little lighter, each day’s a little brave.
Fighting through the silence, I’m standing on my own,
I’m taking care of me now, finally coming home.
