[Intro]

I’m not the ghost you thought I’d be

I’m breaking out so I can breathe

I’m just a shadow in the rain

[Verse 1]

A voice that drowns inside the pain

My mind’s a room with broken glass

I bleed with every thought that’s passed

I wear the weight like iron skin

It keeps the light from getting in

I’ve been the storm against my shore

But I can’t fight myself no more

[Chorus]

I’m not the ghost you thought I’d be

I’m breaking out so I can breathe

The weight won’t hold me anymore

I’ll walk right through the closing door

[Verse 2]

I’ve built a kingdom out of doubt

With every wall I’ve locked me out

I’ve chased thе sun but turned away

I’ve seen my dreams turn into rust

Thеy’re fading each time that I trust

But somewhere deep beneath the stone

A seed still fights to call me home

[Chorus]

I’m not the ghost you thought I’d be

I’m breaking out so I can breathe

The weight won’t hold me anymore

I’ll walk right through the closing door

[Bridge]

Cut me open, let me bloom

Even flowers rise from tombs

Fear’s a tide I will outswim

This is where my life begins

[Chorus]

I’m not the ghost you thought I’d be

I’m breaking out so I can breathe

The weight won’t hold me anymore

I’ll walk right through the closing door

[Outro]

This is where I live again

This is where my life begins
