Songtexte

I counted footsteps for five years
Like I was paying rent to the dark
Every mile a credit card swipe
Every night a ledger mark
I've been living in the rearview
Replaying scenes I didn't steer
Ghost on the shoulder waving, saying "stay"
I shift the gear
I learned to breathe in silence
Learned to fake a smile for play
Built a life of little exits
Practiced never having to stay
I ran on autopilot, autopilot on fumes
Smiled through the interview, then cried in the bathroom
Told myself I'm fine until "fine" became a suit
Wore it all the time, pocket full of truth, mute
But there's a weight to repeating
A loop that hums and hums
And echoes get loud
Until your courage finally comes
I'm done running
Stopwatch on the floor, I'm done (I'm done)
Five years of shadow chasing
I say no more (no more)
Face the mirror, face the scar
Say the name that bruised my core
Build a life from the pieces
That I never saw before
I'm done running
Breathe in, breathe out, keep score
Small steps on the pavement
To the person I'm fighting for
Therapist writes the map
I trace it with trembling hands
Exposure like a flashlight
In the rooms I never planned
Journal thick with grievances
Inked apologies to me
I fold them up, I read them back
I learn to disagree
Trigger's still a trigger
Panic is a knock, not a prison door
I answer with a calendar
Therapy at four
I learn to say I'm scared
Not I'm weak or I don't care
I text my friends, I keep the light
I practice being there
Relapse is a page
Not the whole of the book
You can burn a chapter
You don't have to burn the look
I'm done running
Stopwatch on the floor, I'm done (I'm done)
Five years of shadow chasing
I say no more (no more)
Face the mirror, face the scar
Say the name that bruised my core
Build a life from the pieces
That I never saw before
I'm done running
Breathe in, breathe out, keep score
Small steps on the pavement
To the person I'm fighting for
The fear is loud
I let it be loud
But I don't let it lead
I give it time, I give it words
I feed it less than need
I write my promises in capital letters
On the back of my hand
I tell the truth until it stops
Sounding like a reprimand
It's messy, it's slow
Prosperity and patience
Not the flash
I trade the sprint for steady
Trade the mask for my own face at last
One night I slept without rehearsing the nightmare
One morning woke and lived in a room that didn't care
One call to my mother
One text to my friend
One "I'm sorry" to the mirror
One promise to defend
I'm done running
Stopwatch on the floor, I'm done (I'm done)
Five years of shadow chasing
I say no more (no more)
Face the mirror, face the scar
Say the name that bruised my core
Build a life from the pieces
That I never saw before
I'm done running
Breathe in, breathe out, keep score
Today I took one step
Tomorrow I'll take more
No medal at the finish
Just a window in the light
No crown for surviving
Just the courage to stay and fight
Five years running taught me
How the past can teach the road
I'm walking now
Small stride
Steady heart
Lighter load
