I smile in the mirror, but it’s cracked inside
Been runnin’ from myself, nowhere left to hide
Nightmares in the daytime, silence in the crowd
Tried to scream for help, but I never made a sound
And I pretend I’m okay
But my hands still shake
Every breath’s a battle
Every laugh feels fake
I’m doin’ shadow work in the dark of my mind
Diggin’ through the hurt I buried deep inside
Tryna find the light in all this pain
Patchin’ up the pieces in the pourin’ rain
I’m not healed yet, but I’m on my way
Talkin’ to my demons just to keep ‘em at bay
Still doin’ shadow work in the dark of my mind
But there’s a little more hope every single time
Learnin’ to forgive, learnin’ to stay
Learnin’ I’m enough even when I break
I’m not healed yet, but I’ll be okay
One breath, one step, I’m findin’ my way
Therapist said I’m more than my scars
But some days I feel like I’m falling apart
Memory’s a minefield, heart’s a loaded gun
Still I face the past, ‘cause I won’t run
Told myself it’s okay
Not to be okay
Healing’s not a race
It’s a crooked way
I’m doin’ shadow work in the dark of my mind
Diggin’ through the hurt I buried deep inside
Tryna find the light in all this pain
Patchin’ up the pieces in the pourin’ rain
I’m not healed yet, but I’m on my way
Talkin’ to my demons just to keep ‘em at bay
Still doin’ shadow work in the dark of my mind
But there’s a little more hope every single time
Learnin’ to forgive, learnin’ to stay
Learnin’ I’m enough even when I break
I’m not healed yet, but I’ll be okay
One breath, one step, I’m findin’ my way
I see the child I left behind
She’s cryin’ out for peace of mind
So I hold her close and whisper low:
“You’re not alone, you’re not alone…”
I’m doin’ shadow work in the dark of my mind
Diggin’ through the hurt I buried deep inside
Tryna find the light in all this pain
Patchin’ up the pieces in the pourin’ rain
I’m not healed yet, but I’m on my way
Talkin’ to my demons just to keep ‘em at bay
Still doin’ shadow work in the dark of my mind
But there’s a little more hope every single time
Learnin’ to forgive, learnin’ to stay
Learnin’ I’m enough even when I break
