Still Breathing

[Intro] I still got scars that haven’t healed But at least now I feel Something… [Verse 1] Used to drown in all the flashbacks Every shadow, every panic attack Used to cry until I couldn’t speak Now I talk to ghosts in my sleep But I wake up now, most days Even if it’s cloudy, I still face The world that tried to kill my flame I'm still here — not the same, but I came [Pre-Chorus] Yeah I’m damaged, yeah I’m tired But there’s a little light under the fire And every time I breathe, it’s proof That I made it through the truth [Chorus] I’m still broken, but I’m still breathing Still got nights where I feel like leaving But I stay, for me, for her For the kid I was, unheard Can’t fix the past, can’t change the pain But I can choose to rise again I'm not whole, but I’m not done Still breathing — I’m not gone [Verse 2] I still got bottles I shouldn’t touch Still got secrets I don’t say much But I learned to cry without shame To bleed without blaming my name I’m not your perfect daughter Not your clean, well-behaved martyr But I’m real, and I’m alive And I fight just to survive [Bridge – spoken/sung] She’s gone, but I’m the one who stayed The one who lived with what they made So maybe that makes me strong Even if I’ve been breaking all along [Chorus] I’m still broken, but I’m still breathing Still got nights where I feel like leaving But I stay, for me, for her For the kid I was, unheard Can’t fix the past, can’t change the pain But I can choose to rise again I'm not whole, but I’m not done Still breathing — I’m not gone [Outro] No, I’m not gone I’m still here… Still breathing.
