Drifting Through the Storm

Fading light onto your walls Shadow pulls, shadows pull me Nights I trace the lines you carved inside Every breath a reminder of the fight Hands that held turned to fists in the dark Left me bleeding, torn apart I scream, but no one hears the breakwalls closing in Too late to escape Life is pain It's pain It is mine Carved deep in my soul Trauma chains me Won't let go, shatter the silence Let it all pour I'm drowning in what you left before Memories replay like an endless storm Your words like knives, they still deform I hide the scars, the scars Beneath the clouds Beneath my skin But they ache when the quiet begins I reach for air but choke on the past Holding on, breaking at last This pain is mine Carved deep in my soul Trauma chains me Won't let go, shatter the silence Let it all pour I'm drowning in what you left before One day I'll rise from these ashes and chains Burn the ghosts, wash away the stains No more hiding, no more lies I'll claim my heart Open my eyes This pain is mine But I'll break free Trauma fades It's releasing me Shatter the silence Scream it loud I'm rising now Above the crowd Fading scars Fading scars The light No more scars Through mores pulling you I'm wholly free
