Breaking the Silence

Spent my days in a windowless room Made friends with the dark But even in nothingness I felt alive So I sheltered myself in the words That never came out Torn between hiding away and screaming out loud Breaking the silence Not afraid of the shame in defeat On this day I declare that I'm free I'll embrace what tomorrow may bring All walls that I thought I'd bring down Have proven so tough At least I can say that I'm still pushing on Many times did I stray from the path But I kept my sight I see my old footsteps reminding me, callling me back Breaking the silence Not afraid of the shame in defeat On this day I declare that I'm free I'll embrace what tomorrow may bring Hold on How long Stranded in this place Will I find my way? Hold on I still believe That I'll find my way Breaking the silence Not afraid of the shame in defeat On this day I declare that I'm free I'll embrace what tomorrow may bring After all of these years I will heal
