Verse 1:
In the shadows, he stands alone
A reflection of the pain he's known
His father's fists, a heavy toll
Leaving scars that won't heal whole
Chorus:
Traumatized by the one who should've held tight
Now he's lost in the darkness of night
Haunted by memories, he can't define
The pain of his past, forever on his mind
Verse 2:
He tries to wear a mask, to hide the pain
But the wounds run deep, like an open vein
He searches for solace, a place to call home
But the ghosts of his past keep him roaming, alone
Chorus:
Traumatized by the one who should've held tight
Now he's lost in the darkness of night
Haunted by memories, he can't define
The pain of his past, forever on his mind
Bridge:
Maybe someday, he'll find his way
Through the tears and the pain, he'll learn to stay
He'll find his voice, he'll scream it loud
And break the chains that bind him, proud
Chorus:
Traumatized by the one who should've held tight
Now he's lost in the darkness of night
Haunted by memories, he can't define
The pain of his past, forever on his mind
Outro:
The echoes of pain still linger on
A reminder of what's been and gone
But he won't be defined, he won't be tamed
He'll rise above, he'll break the flames.
