Lyrics

Yeah I know how it sound
Yeah I know what you're thinking
But I'm still above ground
Still building, still breathing
Every call opens up with "are you holding on fine"
Every visit at the door with concern reading between line
I feel the weight of every question underneath the care
Like the music that I'm making is a signal of despair
And I get it, I appreciate the love you bring my way
But the heaviness inside the songs ain't leading me astray
It's a valve I turn to drain whatever builds beneath
It's a channel for the pressure that I otherwise can't breathe
I'm still making, that's how you know I'm okay
Taking everything that hurts and giving it away
To a melody, a verse, a place that holds the weight
I'm not lost inside the feeling, I'm just breaking down the ache
I'm still making, pen still moving through the pain
Turning every heavy evening into something I can name
I'm not asking you to get it, I just need you to believe
That the music is the proof that I'm still choosing to breathe
There's a difference between suffering and sitting with the truth
Between romanticizing damage and just processing the proof
I've been carrying a quiet kind of heavy for a while
But I never stopped creating, kept on running every mile
Every dark lyric is a stone I'm pulling off my chest
Every finished bar means I got through it, not just expressed
I'm not painting walls with grief to make a home in the dark
I'm pulling it apart to find the light inside the scar
I'm still making, that's how you know I'm okay
Taking everything that hurts and giving it away
To a melody, a verse, a place that holds the weight
I'm not lost inside the feeling, I'm just breaking down the ache
I'm still making, pen still moving through the pain
Turning every heavy evening into something I can name
I'm not asking you to get it, I just need you to believe
That the music is the proof that I'm still choosing to breathe
There's a version of this story where I swallow it all whole
Sit in silence, let it calcify inside my soul
But I picked the other option, I picked volume over mute
I picked something over nothing and I'm seeing it right through
Every session is a surgery, every lyric is a stitch
Converting all the weight into a frequency and pitch
Not performing for the pain just performing through the storm
Every song I finish means I made it to the morn
So when you ask me if I'm okay here's the honest truth
I'm not perfect, I'm not healed, I'm not entirely smooth
But I'm moving through the mud and I'm making while I go
Turning what I can't explain into something you can know
The songs are dark because the feelings needed somewhere real
Not because I've given in but because this is how I deal
And feelings are the only honest currency I've got
So I'll keep on making music from whatever shows up raw
And here's what nobody tells you about bleeding on the page
Every time you turn the hurt into a line you start to age
Not older, but more settled, like the noise begins to clear
And the things that felt like chaos slowly start to reappear
As something you can hold and name and finally understand
Like the mud you've been navigating turning into land
I don't make the music just to carry what I'm under
I make it because somewhere in the making I find wonder
I'm still making, that's how you know I'm okay
Taking everything that hurts and giving it away
To a melody, a verse, a place that holds the weight
I'm not lost inside the feeling, I'm just breaking down the ache
I'm still making, pen still moving through the pain
Turning every heavy evening into something I can name
I'm not asking you to get it, I just need you to believe
That the music is the proof that I'm still choosing to breathe
So yeah, I'm struggling
But I'm here
And as long as I'm still making
I'm still clear
