Lyrics
Felt so alone in my head
Feeling isolated and alone within my thoughts.
Walls coming down, everything closing in
Sensations of barriers breaking down around me, feeling overwhelmed.
Every feeling, every possibility flattened down
All emotions and potential outcomes flattened or suppressed.
The world so deafening, I couldn't hear a sound
The world's noise was so overwhelming that I couldn't perceive anything.
Now I'm free
A sense of liberation.
I'm nothing like the shadow I used to be
No longer resembling the dark, obscured version of myself.
Like a river flows
Comparing personal growth to the natural flow of a river.
My heart now it knows
My heart has gained understanding or insight.
What it means to be
Understanding the essence of existence.
I'm finally free
Emphasizing the achieved freedom.
The old self, I knew was never me
Recognition that the former self was not the true identity.
The toll life seems to take
Struggles and challenges experienced in life.
Can't help but nearly break
Almost reaching a breaking point due to life's challenges.
Now I can finally breathe
Finally experiencing relief, able to breathe freely.
I can finally breathe
Reiterating the relief and newfound ability to breathe.
I'm where I'm supposed to be
Feeling in the right place or situation.
Felt like a brick off my chest
Sense of weight lifted off my chest.
I opened my eyes, I could finally see the rest
Gaining clarity and perception to see beyond limitations.
What I was missing, what I couldn't see
Realization of what was previously overlooked or unseen.
I forgot where I was, I could barely believe
Momentary disbelief at the newfound realization.
Now I'm free
Reiteration of the achieved freedom.
I'm nothing like the shadow I used to be
Continued contrast between former and current self.
Like a river flows
Comparing personal growth to the fluidity of a river's movement.
My heart now it knows
Further understanding or insight gained by the heart.
What it means to be
Understanding the essence of existence reiterated.
I'm finally free
Emphasizing the achieved freedom again.
The old self, I knew was never me
Reiteration that the former self was not the true identity.
The toll life seems to take
Highlighting the toll that life's challenges can take.
Can't help but nearly break
Expressing the closeness to breaking due to life's challenges.
Now I can finally breathe
Restating the newfound ability to breathe freely.
