The Broken Child That Still Remains

[Verse I] Born beneath a frozen sky, Where warmth was just a whispered lie. A heart too young to understand, Why comfort slips through broken hands. The mirror never told the truth, Just fragments of a fading youth. Eyes that learned to fake their glow, While drowning deep, where no one goes. Before collapsing into silence again.* --- [Chorus] The broken child that still remains, Walks through fire, breathes through pain. Left for dead, yet still alive, The broken child that learns to survive. Every scar a silent vow, Every wound a lesson now. Born from ruin, cursed to strive, The broken child — but still alive. --- [Verse II] They fed me lies and called it faith, Taught me silence keeps you safe. But in the quiet I could hear, The echo of my buried fear. The world was cold, and so was I, Made of fragments that won’t die. A fragile soul in rusted skin, Haunted by what should have been. [Chorus] The broken child that still remains, Walks through fire, breathes through pain. Left for dead, yet still alive, The broken child that learns to survive. Every scar a silent vow, Every wound a lesson now. Born from ruin, cursed to strive, The broken child — but still alive. You were never meant to fall… but you did. --- [Verse III – Final Revelation] Now I stand where I began, With trembling heart, but stronger hands. The world still burns, yet I remain, Alive within my endless pain. No savior came, no angel stayed, Just ashes where my name was laid. And from the dark I learned to see, The broken child was always… me.
