Facing the Echoes

 I had a dream to break free from the chains,

But the weight of my body brought me back to the flames.

The wrong friends beside me, their laughter turned cold,

Now I'm feeling the emptiness, a story untold.

But I still hear the echoes of who I could be,

Even when the world has turned its back on me.


Chorus


Coming home with nothing, but I'm still alive,

Facing the echoes, where my hopes used to thrive.

I long for a chance to reclaim my lost days,

To rise from the ashes, in so many ways.


Verse 2


It was all about freedom, a life unconfined,

But society's shadows have come to unwind.

With dreams in my pockets, but an anchor on my soul,

Now I'm left with the pieces, trying to feel whole.

Every scar tells a story, every wound makes me real.



Chorus


Coming home with nothing, but I'm still alive,

Facing Facing the echoes, where my hopes used to thrive.

I hope for a chance to reclaim my lost days,

To rise from the ashes, in so many ways. 2]

It was all about freedom, a life unconfined,

But hardships and struggles have come to unwind.

With hope in my pockets, but an anchor on my soul,

Now I'm left with the pieces, trying to feel whole.

Every scar tells a journey, every wound makes me real.

Chorus

Coming home with nothing, but I'm still alive,

Facing the echoes, where my hopes used to thrive.

I long for a chance to reclaim my lost days,

To rise from the ashes, in so many ways.

Outro

So I'll keep on walking, though the road's bittersweet,

With strength in my heart, I won't accept defeat.

I'm Alive

  Now all these naive dreams of mine are dead and gone Like the light that once had shone There was no simple way to rise up for the marathon Where all the kingdoms run Another day is dawned, another day goes on, another day is gone And on and on But in the night I breathe a sigh of golden faerie dust To light the dead and gone To light the burnt out sun, cause Gimme a reason, gimme a reason  Ooooooh Gimme a reason I need a reason, I need a reason to carry on Season through season And while it’s great I haven’t died And in this cold world I survive All I really want’s to thrive Cause I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive No passing by of these dreams They’ll never die And now this flag is gonna fly Cause I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m alive There in a shadow I cast away from my life When I climb toward that far away light (oooh, far away light) There was no simple way to rise above inquisitors I was a harrowing fight (oooh give up the fight) And now that battle’s won, look what the scars...

Windchill (lyrics)

  Windchill (lyrics) Hello, uh ooooh, uh ooooh Hello, uh oooh, oooh ... (through megaphone) You stand where your judgements’ a back up a wall A world designed to diminish the small You manufacture a chill while you bathe in the heat (We’re) fighting an endless windchill that, to you, Feels like a summer breeze, ensuring that many Stay under your feet You mistake a survivor for cracks in the soul The cost Of your control The survivors flock While you gatekeepers sneer But we see insecurity Masking your fear You deny us the access To keep yourselves high But we see the worth That you try to deny Tactual state (Oh oh oh oh oh oh) A strength you hate (Oh oh oh oh oh ohhh) Point at the leash Call us a hoarding louse Judging the healing we find Without a house As if an animals love Is a prize for the rich While you view our existence As a systemic glitch You’re threatened by spirits That endure the cold The brave The truth being told The survivors flock While you gatekeepers sneer But we...
