I was breathing but I wasn't alive
Just a shadow wearing skin
Every night felt like a prison
Every thought a mortal sin
I carved my name into the silence
Screamed for something real
But the dark kept pulling tighter
Till I forgot how hope should feel!
I was lost inside the damage
Drowning slow
Begging for air
Then your voice cut through the violence
Like a prayer
You pulled me out of the fire!
Held my soul when I was breaking
Turned my scars into desire
Gave me love worth saving
I was dying in the shadows
Now I finally see the truth
If hell was where I came from
Heaven looks like you
I made a home inside my pain
Built my throne from regret
Every promise I abandoned
Every bridge I ever set
I wore my trauma like a crown
Let it rule my veins
But you saw the man beneath the ruin
Not the damage, not the shame
I was rotting in the silence
Heart locked in a cage
Then you whispered: Stay!
And stopped the decay!
You pulled me out of the fire
Held my soul when I was breaking
Turned my scars into desire
Gave me love worth saving
I was dying in the shadows
Now I finally see the truth
If hell was where I came from
Heaven looks like you
I've bled for every version of me
That didn't survive
I've prayed to gods that never
Answered back
But you stayed when I was empty
You stayed when I was gone
You loved the parts of me
I thought were beyond saving
You pulled me out of the fire! (you pulled me out of the fire)
held my soul when I was breaking (held my soul when I was breaking)
turned my scars into desire (turned into desire)
gave me love worth saving (gave me love worth saving)
I was dying in the shadows
Now I finally see the truth
If hell was where I came from
Heaven looks like you
You pulled me out of the fire
I was lost, I was gone
My soul when I was breaking
Now I'm home, now my soul
You saved me from myself
I was buried in the hell I built
You stood
Where I would have died
Love was the violence that set me alive!
