[Verse 1]
I still taste the words you left inside my mouth
Like broken glass I never learned to spit out
You were the fire that I begged to survive
Now I’m just ashes trying to feel alive
I gave you everything I couldn’t save
My hands were bleeding while I dug my own grave
You watched me drown and called it letting go
Now I’m the ghost of the person you’ll never know
[Pre-Chorus]
And I hate that I still miss you
I hate that I still care
You’re the wound I keep reopening
Just to prove you were there
[Chorus]
At midnight, I’m fighting my demons again
Talking to shadows that look like my friends
I lost my heart but I found my rage
I’m not the victim you buried away
These midnight scars still scream your name
But I’m learning to love the pain
You broke the chains you put me through
Now I’m becoming someone new
[Verse 2]
I remember every promise you destroyed
Every piece of me you turned into a void
You said forever like it meant something real
Then walked away from everything I feel
I built a home inside a hurricane
You were the storm, I was begging for rain
Now every thunder sounds like your goodbye
But I’m still standing here, refusing to die
[Double Time Part – fast, emotional, rising intensity]
I’ve been chasing ghosts through the ruins of my mind
Searching for a reason in the wreckage left behind
Every single memory is cutting like a knife
But every scar I carry proves I fought to stay alive
You were the poison that I called my cure
A beautiful disaster that I couldn’t endure
I lost myself trying to keep you close
Now I’m finding the pieces you never could hold
I’m sick of the silence, I’m done with the blame
I’m burning the letters, I’m breaking the chains
The person you shattered is screaming “I’m here”
I’m turning my trauma into something you fear
[Bridge – heavy / breakdown]
I won’t erase you
I won’t pretend
You were the beginning
But you’re not the end
I carried your weight
I carried your blame
But I’m done letting you
Own my name
[Final Chorus]
At midnight, I’m fighting my demons again
But I’m stronger than the darkness I’m in
You took my love, you took my trust
But you couldn’t take what’s left of us
These midnight scars will fade away
I’ll turn this suffering into a flame
You were the storm I had to survive
I’m the proof that I’m still alive
[Outro]
So let the night remember me
Not as the one you broke
But as the one who learned to breathe
Through every word you spoke
