Lyrics

[INTRO]
Fresh out the pen, he’s stepping in the light,
But can you see the shadows, dancing through the night?
With a half-closed heart and a mind that’s in a strife,
He roams the streets alone, just searching for his life.

[VERSE 1]
He’s got a little sleep dust hanging in his eyes,
Navigating corners where temptation never dies,
Got a past full of battles, but no scars he’ll show,
He plays a game of footsies, but who really knows?
Mitch is on the sidelines, whispering so sweet,
In a world of chaos, he's just trying to find his beat.

[CHORUS]
Fresh out the pen, he’s dancing in the rain,
Can’t you see the glimmer hiding in his pain?
Not out to fight, just trying to stay clean,
Our little mouse is free, but lost in between.

[VERSE 2]
Ten days down the road, can’t say he’s on the mend,
In this maze of his mind, won’t let the struggle end,
A little bit of courage, but a mountain in his way,
How to break the silence when the words won’t stay?
There’s a flicker of hope, but it’s hiding out of sight,
In a world that’s so dark, he’s just searching for the light.

[CHORUS]
Fresh out the pen, he’s dancing in the rain,
Can’t you see the glimmer hiding in his pain?
Not out to fight, just trying to stay clean,
Our little mouse is free, but lost in between.

[BRIDGE]
He’s walking on a wire, balancing his fears,
Every step a reminder of all the wasted years,
Mitch says, “Take it easy, one breath at a time,”
But those thoughts keep racing, like a song without a rhyme.

[VERSE 3]
Thoughts of yesterday, heavy like a chain,
But he’s carving out a future, letting go of shame,
With a spark in his heart and a whisper in his ear,
He’s dancing with the shadows, but he won't disappear.
A little love, a little trust, can lead him to the dawn,
And this mouse ain't scared, he’s learning to move on.

[CHORUS]
Fresh out the
