Verse 1
I walked these halls a thousand nights
Tracing cracks in borrowed light
Every whisper wore my name
Every shadow fed the flame
I was drowning in the echo
Of a voice I thought was mine
But something in me won’t stay silent
Something in me starts to rise
Through the weight, through the violence
I can see it in my eyes
These chains don’t feel eternal
They’re just stories that I’ve known
If I break the script I’m living
I might finally be my own
Verse 2
Every scar a hidden door
Every loss reveals me more
I was built from all this pain
But I don’t have to stay the same
There’s a fracture in the mirror
And the truth is bleeding through
Something in me won’t stay silent
Something in me starts to rise
Through the weight, through the violence
I can see it in my eyes
These chains don’t feel eternal
They’re just stories that I’ve known
If I break the script I’m living
I might finally be my own
If I fall, I fall awake
If I burn, I shed the fake
No more ghosts to drag me down
I hear a different kind of sound
Not free yet… but I can feel it
Not whole yet… but I’m close
There’s a door I’ve never opened
And tonight… I choose to go
