Wake up, sunlight hits my face, Like it never lost my name. Coffee steaming, birds are singing, For a second I'm okay. Catch a laugh, and it feels honest, Not borrowed from better days. Lose the weight for just a moment, And I let it drift away. 1Pre-chorus But healing never moves in straight lines, Turns around when I think I'm through. Every mile I leave behind me Finds a way to come back into view. 1Chorus Some days I'm proud that I survived it, Heart still pounding, beating loud. Wear these scars like proof I'm standing, Like a vow I won't back down. Some days I wish the weight would leave me, Wish the battle would let go. The same voice screaming, "Keep on moving," Whispers softly, "I don't know." Some days feel like I'm falling backward, Some days like I'm breaking through. But every step is part of healing, No matter what I have to do. Verse 2 Memories come without a warning, Take a seat inside my head. Every sound and every shadow Pulls me somewhere I've already been. I know I'm here, I know I'm present, But my body still prepares. Hears the thunder after silence, Finds a danger that's not there. 2Pre-chorus And I hate how one bad morning Can erase a thousand wins. But every time I find my footing, I prove I'm stronger than I've been. 2Chorus Some days I'm proud that I survived it, Heart still pounding, beating loud. Wear these scars like proof I'm standing, Like a vow I won't back down. Some days I wish the weight would leave me, Wish the battle would let go. The same voice screaming, "Keep on moving," Whispers softly, "I don't know." Some days feel like I'm falling backward, Some days like I'm breaking through. But every step is part of healing, No matter what I have to do. Bridge Grief comes in like a rising tide, Pulls away then crashes in. Every time it drags me under, I come back stronger than I've been. Thought recovery meant no breaking, No more shaking, no more pain. Maybe it's getting up tomorrow And choosing hope again, again. Final Chorus Some days I'm barely hanging on now, Some days I feel brand new. But every day I keep on breathing Is another day I move. Darkness sits beside me sometimes, Sometimes it fades into the light. I'm learning neither one can own me, They're just passing through the night. Some days feel like I'm falling backward, Some days like I'm breaking through. But every day I keep on fighting Is another day I move. Outro If today feels like the beginning, I'll start again, I'll see it through. Healing isn't being perfect— It's choosing life the way I do.
