Lyrics

erse 1
Spent all my “maybe somedays” counting cracks along the floor,
Watched the seasons paint their colours while I questioned wanting more.
I let my heart stay in its silence, swallowed words I never spoke—
Now every “what if” that I buried cuts me deeper than the smoke.

Pre-Chorus
‘Cause I built my life on comfort,
Tied my dreams behind my back,
Thought safety was salvation—
Now it’s just another lack.

Chorus
Wish I’d loved like the sky on fire,
Raged like thunder through the night,
Leapt off every edge that called me
Just to see if I could fly.
Now the echoes fill the hallway
With the ghosts of my pretence;
I’m a man of half-lived stories
Begging time for one more chance.

Verse 2
I kept my wishes in a bottle, corked with fear of what I’d lose,
Let the sunlight paint my shadow while my heart refused the bruise.
But the clock hands cut like razors and the years are paper-thin—
Folded dreams and quiet pages that I never wrote within.

Pre-Chorus
There’s a courage in the freefall,
In the bruise that proves you tried;
Now the flight I never boarded
Leaves me stranded on the tide.

Chorus
Wish I’d loved like the sky on fire,
Raged like thunder through the night,
Leapt off every edge that called me
Just to see if I could fly.
Now the echoes fill the hallway
With the ghosts of my pretence;
I’m a man of half-lived stories
Begging time for one more chance.

Bridge
All the words I failed to whisper,
All the hands I didn’t hold—
They’re the storm inside my ribcage
Shaking rooms I called my home.
If tomorrow grants forgiveness,
Let it drown the weight of doubt;
I would trade a thousand heartaches
Just to feel this heartbeat now.

Final Chorus
Let me burn like the sky on fire,
Flood the night with fearless light,
Crash through every door that haunts me
‘Til my lungs remember flight.
No more echoes in the hallway,
No more ghosts of hesitant men—
Give me scars that prove the living,
Give me chances once again.

Outro
‘Cause a life that’s never broken
Is a song that’s never sung;
So I’ll break upon the moment
Till I feel what I’ve become.
