Trying to find myself

Still carrying the weight of a broken past

Echoes in my mind, shadows cast

Nine months and a week, since I walked away

From the storm that tore my peace away

People say that time can heal the pain

But I wonder, does it really change?

Nightmares dance in the corners of my sleep

Memories they steal what I try to keep

Every familiar face, every familiar place

Brings back the pain, leaves me in a daze

But I'm fighting, against the wind and rain

Trying to find my way through the pain

Shattered and broken, but still I stand

Rebuilding my life with my own hands

You shattered my confidence, left me a shell

A story of sorrow I can't really tell

But I won't be defeated, I will rise

Hearts can heal, and so can eyes

Every day is a battle, a war inside

A struggle to leave the past behind

But I won't give up, I will survive

Stronger each day, alive, revived

Cause I’m fighting, against the wind and rain

Trying to find my way through the pain

Shattered and broken, but still I stand

Rebuilding my life with my own hands

Time is a liar, they say it heals

But I know truth is what I feel

This scar’s a story, a lesson learned

From every tear, a fire burned

Nine months and a week, I’ve come so far

A wounded soul with a shining star

Healing is a road I choose to walk

In my own time, I will talk

Fighting to be whole again, step by step, song by song.
