July’s Quiet Crescendo

Lyrics

[INTRO] It started with a July sunrise, the heat on my back When the weight of the world pressed down, I couldn't stay intact [VERSE 1] People called, “Help me out, I’m stuck, I can't see light.” I was the fixer, the savior, the one they’d rely on night to night. I carried their burdens like a chain I never could break, Thought my purpose was to mend, not to drown in this ache. [PRE-CHORUS] The more I solved, the more the cracks appeared, Silent whispers turning louder, drowning all my cheer. [CHORUS] I’m tired of fixing what’s broken inside, Lost in a storm I can’t seem to hide. Pour the night, pour the pain, let the bottle drown me, I’m stuck in a loop, can’t break free. [VERSE 2] I kept my promise, my promise to hold them tight, But my own heart grew cold, no warmth in the night. Every sigh, every sob, became a mirror that glowed, A reflection of my own soul, where the pain now shows. [PRE-CHORUS] Thought I’d rise, but the fire only burns my hand, Now I’m a shadow of who I used to understand. [CHORUS] I’m tired of fixing what’s broken inside, Lost in a storm I can’t seem to hide. Pour the night, pour the pain, let the bottle drown me, I’m stuck in a loop, can’t break free. [BRIDGE] There’s a line I didn’t cross, a threshold I refused, When I became the healer, I lost my own muse. I’ll break the cycle, tear down the walls of my mind, Find the truth that lies inside, one piece at a time. [CHORUS] I’m tired of fixing what’s broken inside, But now I’ll learn to let the storm subside. Hold my own heart, let the darkness wane, I’ll find my own way, release the chain. [OUTRO] July’s heat faded, the scars left behind, A new dawn awaits,
