[Guitar intro – fast, dark riff, minor key, palm-muted]
[Verse 1 – tense, raw, driving]
I whispered… I held my breath
Kept you safe… hid my depth
Every promise… a chain
Love shouldn’t burn like this pain
Late-night doubts… in your shadow
I shrank… just to follow
I woke… I saw the truth
I lost myself… choosing you
[Pre-Chorus – building intensity]
I don’t… owe you silence
I don’t… owe you tears
Step away… step louder
I’m alive… I’m here
[Chorus – aggressive, cathartic]
I’m no longer yours
I belong to me
Cut the cord… I breathe
What you broke… I restore
I don’t need your war
I’m free… free
I’m free… free
I’m no longer yours
I belong to me
Cut the cord… I breathe
What you broke… I restore
I don’t need your war
(What you broke
I restore
I don’t need your war)
[drum fill, palm-muted guitar hit between choruses]
[Verse 2 – sharp, punchy, driving]
You loved control… I loved peace
Took more than you gave… never ceased
Called it love… called it fate
I drowned… in your mistakes
Mirror cracked… now honest
Your empty “sorry”… fades
Can’t touch me… not anymore
[Pre-Chorus – heavier, faster]
I don’t flinch
I don’t shake
I left… I rise
I’m stronger… right here
[Chorus – faster, scream backing vocals]
I’m no longer yours
I belong to me
Cut the cord… I breathe
What you broke… I restore
I don’t need your war
(I’m free… free
I’m free… free)
I’m no longer yours
I belong to me
Cut the cord… I breathe
What you broke… I restore
I don’t need your war
What you broke… I restore
I don’t need your war
[Bridge – dark, jagged, almost screaming]
Tried to keep me small…
I learned to stand tall
If love costs my soul…
I want none at all
Forgive… but I’m gone
That chapter… dead and done
Keep your apologies
I choose me… I won
[Final Chorus – all-out, aggressive, cathartic release]
I’m no longer yours
Hear me scream
I found light… walking away
No fear… no remorse
I reclaim my force
(I’m free… free
I’m free… free)
I’m no longer yours
I belong to me
Cut the cord… I breathe
What you broke… I restore
I don’t need your war
What you broke… I restore
I don’t need your war
you broke…
I restore....
I don’t need your war
