[Intro]
My world is now small.
I built up the wall.
I won't let you near.
I conquered the fear.
[Verse 1]
I finally ran dry.
My heart wanted to cry.
Too much to endure.
I had to shut the door.
The hurt is still real.
I'm tired of how I feel.
This space is my shield.
The fracture is sealed.
I'm walking the line.
This journey is mine.
[Pre-Chorus]
My spirit is broken.
The words were outspoken.
This quiet is tough.
I finally had enough.
[Chorus]
I don't care if you hate that I'm gone,
I woke up from feeling strong right where I belong.
The comfort you offered was nothing but fear,
I'm glad that I'm nowhere near here.
I stand in this calm where the pain cannot reach,
This quiet is the only thing that I will preach.
I traded your presence for a life all my own,
I'm happy right here, on my self-made throne.
[Verse 2]
I used up my grace.
To keep up their pace.
My energy's back.
I'm off of that track.
The drama is fake.
A choice I won't make.
I found my own flow.
I watch the world go.
I won't ever look.
I closed up that book.
[Pre-Chorus]
My spirit is broken.
The words were outspoken.
This quiet is tough.
I finally had enough.
[Chorus]
I don't care if you hate that I'm gone,
I woke up from feeling strong right where I belong.
The comfort you offered was nothing but fear,
I'm glad that I'm nowhere near here.
I stand in this calm where the pain cannot reach,
This quiet is the only thing that I will preach.
I traded your presence for a life all my own,
I'm happy right here, on my self-made throne.
[Bridge]
I finally understood what was tearing me down,
That you need the pain just to wear the crown.
I won't let you drag me into the same tired fight,
It cost me everything to find my own light.
Yeah, I had to choose what was real and what hurt,
And I picked myself first.
[Outro]
No going back now.
I keep my own vow.
This world is my own.
I sit on my throne.
I'm happy right here.
I'm glad you're not near.
(Repeat and fade...)
