JuL -- 1er dans la bataille -- 2015

[INTRO]
You keep sayin’ you’re “healing” by runnin’ into someone new
But that ain’t recovery, that’s just tryin’ not to sit with the truth
You ain’t searching for peace, you’re just hiding from the mirror
You’re not escaping the darkness, you’re dragging it with you nearer

[VERSE 1]
You think a new distraction means your heart’s gonna mend
But all you’re doing is putting fresh blood on an unclosed end
You never let the first heartbreak bleed out from your soul
You just found another victim to try to make you feel whole
You say you “need love right now”, no, you need accountability
‘Cause if you can’t love yourself, you’ll poison every possibility
You chased validation, not growth, you chased attention, not peace
And now you’re blaming the ones who loved you
For the demons you never released

[PRE-CHORUS]
I begged you to sit with your shadows, to face the storm you’re in
But instead, you ran to another,  and called that healing from within
You think running brings salvation, but all you harvest is decay
You don’t fix a broken heart… by giving it away

[CHORUS]
BY CHASING ANOTHER, THAT ISN’T HEALING, IT’S JUST CHASING PAIN
YOU CAN’T ESCAPE YOUR SHADOWS WHEN YOUR SOUL STILL BLEEDS THE SAME
YOU CAN’T CALL IT LOVE WHEN IT’S JUST TRAUMA PLAYING THE GAME
RUN FROM YOURSELF ALL YOU WANT, BUT THE WOUND STILL KNOWS YOUR NAME
YOU’LL KEEP BREAKING WHAT YOU TOUCH, UNTIL YOU HEAL WITHIN
NO NEW LOVER CAN SAVE YOU,  IF YOU’RE STILL THE PRISON YOU LIVE IN

[VERSE 2]
You didn’t need a new heart, you needed to mend your own
But you jumped into a body hopin’ it would feel like home
Temporary comfort ain’t the same as transformation
You can’t resurrect your soul through emotional migration
I watched you cycle the same mistakes, same lies, new faces
Every love you try to find,  just becomes another wasteland of traces
It ain’t them, it’s the ghost inside you you refuse to confront
You keep fleeing from the battle, but the pain’s still on the hunt

[BRIDGE]
Healing ain’t soft, healing ain’t safe
It’s looking at your own reflection
Without hiding behind someone else’s face
You can run from accountability,
But not from the toll of what you’ve done
You’ll keep chasing fake comfort
‘Til you’re left with absolutely none

[FINAL CHORUS]
BY CHASING ANOTHER, THAT ISN’T HEALING, IT’S JUST CHASING PAIN
YOU CAN’T ESCAPE YOUR SHADOWS WHEN YOUR SOUL STILL BLEEDS THE SAME
YOU CAN’T CALL IT LOVE WHEN YOUR LOVE IS STILL SO UNTRAINED
RUN FROM YOURSELF, YOU’LL FIND HELL, WEARING A DIFFERENT NAME
YOU’LL KEEP BREAKING WHAT YOU TOUCH, UNTIL YOU HEAL WITHIN
NO NEW LOVER CAN SAVE YOU, IF YOU’RE STILL THE PRISON YOU LIVE IN

[OUTRO]
You don’t heal by replacing, you heal by facing
‘Cause if you never go inward
You’ll just keep creating new versions
of the same damn heartbreak.

Salivé
