The night is fading, but my heart still bleeds, I’m standing here with shattered dreams and needs. I walked through ruins where my hope once lived, Held on to love I had no strength to give. The silence breaks where the shadows creep, It’s in the dark my wounds learn how to speak. The ache, it grows, but keeps me awake, Every scar reminds me what life can take. I’m drowning but reaching, Still hurting, still believing. Through the ashes, through the pain, I rise again, I breathe again! Yeah, drowning but reaching, My heart still beating. The wind still carries all my fears, But I won’t fade like all those years. I watched the sun fall behind my grief, But found myself standing in disbelief. The ghosts I hold, they carve my soul, But even broken pieces make me whole. The night can try to swallow me, But this small flame still longs to be free. I’m drowning but reaching, Still hurting, still believing. Through the ashes, through the pain, I rise again, I breathe again! And when the darkness calls my name, I’ll light the spark beneath the blame. I’m drowning but reaching, Still hurting, still believing. Through the ashes, through the pain, I rise again, I breathe again! Maybe sorrow shapes the hands, That hold the light we never planned. I’m drowning but reaching, Still hurting, still believing. Through the ashes, through the pain, I rise again, I breathe again! Yeah, drowning but reaching, And I’m still… here.
