Uncertainty

And tell no where it stays. We stood by the doorway And didn't go in. Saved for another day, The scream under our skin. One wrong step scared us, so we ended in Dreams. Trading "I'll do it" For waiting routines. We hunted perfect, Kept watching for signs. While minutes kept pouring Like thinning out wine. Time only moved forward, No turning it back. And silence grew heavier, Poison black. Insecurity's a thief, It steals all our days. So many chances gone 'cause we couldn't be brave. We called our fear caution, pretending it's wise. And lost who we were, slowly burning Inside. But now we can see it, we won't look Away. We'll give "yes" back to us and tell No where it stays. And Tell no where it stays. We swallowed "I love you," Though everything burned. Words stuck in the throat and the heart never Learned. We didn't hit the gas when luck held The wheel. We traded the moment for "maybe it's Not real." We saved up later, 'til it turned into ash. And later became a cold, hollow crash. We lost our own voices in all of that Doubt. Fading in the crowd. But we're alive, so there's still a new road. Fear is just noise, not a permanent home. Let it shake in our chest, we're still on Our feet. Not perfect, just honest, We move when we need. We're learning to choose and growing right through. And growing right through. Insecurity's a thief, but we won't feed it More. If the chance is nearby, We're taking what's ours. No more maybe one day, no more losing in Mist. Yeah, today feels scary. We finally Exist. We finally exist.
