Back to Life

I was sinking in the noise I used to chase Every heartbeat felt like someone else’s race Empty rooms and echoes calling out my name Tried to hide, but shadows knew me just the same Every tide pulled me under the blue But I found the surface breaking through Now I breathe like the first time new Every low just pulled me through Back to life Back to life Back to life I remember when the night would never end Used to fall, now I never break again Every scar just turned into a sign That I’m not the same but I’m still mine Every wave tried to steal my sound But I’m louder now, I’m spellbound I don’t run, I don’t drown I just rise when I hit the ground Back to life Back to life I remember how to breathe I don’t need the world to understand I just move like water through their hands If I fade, I leave a glow Unbroken, uncontrolled Back to life Back to life Back to life I remember how to breathe
