Epic Song: “Echoes of the Heart” (Verse 1) In the stillness of the night, I hear the echoes call, Memories like shadows, they climb my shattered walls. Every word, every wound, has etched a story on my soul, But I rise from the ashes, learning to be whole. (Pre-Chorus) They advised me to hide the pain, to smile and pretend, But I’ve carried storms within me from the very start. I won’t be silenced, I won’t fade into the gray, The voice within me whispers, “There’s strength in what you say.” (Chorus) Trauma is trauma, and my heart won’t deceive, I’ve bled in the darkness, now I reach for the sky. Through the pain and the fire, I’ll find my way, I matter, I’m worthy, and I’ll soar today. (Verse 2) I trusted hands that trembled, they let me fall apart, But love is not betrayal, it’s someone holding your heart. The ones who truly care will never make you small, They’ll sit with you in your sorrow, helping you through it all. (Bridge) So here’s to the scars, the stories I own, Every tear is a seed where my courage has grown. I’m not defined by the darkness or the people who turned, Their silence is a lesson, and my voice has returned. (Chorus) Trauma is trauma, and my heart won’t deceive, I’ve bled in the darkness, now I reach for the sky. Through the pain and the fire, I’ll find my way, I matter, I’m worthy, and I’ll soar today. (Outro) I am loved, I am seen, I will rise and be free, This song is my healing, my heart’s melody. Trauma is trauma, but it won’t break me, I am whole, I am strong, and I’m finally free.
