Second Chances

Silent nights, heavy hearts, buried secrets in the dark

I’ve been stuck in shadows, running from my fears

Lost in the silence, drowning in my tears

Promised to be there, but I’ve let you down

Feeling like a stranger in my own town

Hiding behind my scars, chasing fleeting dreams

Caught in a storm of doubts, bursting at the seams

I pray for strength, for a brand new start

Yearning to heal, mend my broken heart

Sorry, God, I fall so short

Broken vows, a faded port

Wanting to rise, to find my way

Leave the darkness, chase the day

A failing uncle, a tired soul

Fighting battles I can't control

But I hope for grace, a second chance

To be the man I’ve never danced

Lost in addiction’s grip, I tread so thin

Echoes of loved ones lost, in the wind

Study’s left behind, future unclear

But deep inside, I hold hope near

Seeking redemption, craving peace

Longing for a life where fears cease

Praying for guidance, for open doors

To find my way through all these wars

Sorry, God, I fall so short

Broken vows, a faded port

Wanting to rise, to find my way

Leave the darkness, chase the day

A failing uncle, a tired soul

Fighting battles I can't control

But I hope for grace, a second chance

To be the man I’ve never danced

Every tear, every pain, I wear like scars

Learning to forgive myself, reach for the stars

Holding onto faith, it’s all I need

To plant new seeds, to start to believe

So here I stand, hoping you hear

A broken man, crying out in fear

Lord, I’m trying, I’m trying to be whole

Heal my wounds, renew my soul

Let me find my way, find my place

Restore my hope, revive my grace
