Time Thief
Reclaiming Time: Healing from Silent Pain
Lyrics
I know you're afraid to touch again
I understand that you're hesitant to engage emotionally once more.
I know cuz I have the same scars
I empathize because I bear similar emotional wounds.
When he took everything under your skin
Referring to a past experience where someone took away everything that was deeply ingrained in your emotions.
You're convinced he took you too far
You believe that this person pushed you beyond a reasonable limit.
But, he can't take you silently
Despite the trauma, he cannot affect you without a sound.
He didn't break you silently
The person did not shatter or destroy you quietly.
You can't survive silently
You can't endure or recover in silence.
Begin your story when you breathe
Your healing journey begins when you breathe and open up to share your story.
Quiet is the sound of choking grief
The absence of noise signifies the suffocating pain of grief.
You crave space, now you're a time thief
You now desire personal space and have become a "time thief," possibly indicating a tendency to reclaim stolen time for yourself.
This mind can heal everything
The mind has the capacity to heal from the trauma experienced.
Eyes move back and forth in relief
Your eyes move in relief, indicating a sense of release or recovery.
Still, he can't take you silently
Similar to line 6, reiterating that the person cannot affect you without making a sound.
He didn't break you silently
The person did not break you in silence.
You can't survive silently
You can't overcome this in silence; expression is necessary for survival.
Begin your story when you breathe
Your journey toward healing commences when you allow yourself to breathe and share your narrative.
Stealing hours, I'm back inside before the giant tricks me
Engaging in activities that take time surreptitiously, possibly as a coping mechanism to reclaim lost time before facing challenges.
I can hear my heart beating
A heightened awareness of one's heartbeat, signifying a renewed sense of life and energy.
Reborn, I'm the time thief
A metaphorical rebirth, now embodying the role of a "time thief."
