Finding My Way Home



[Verse 1]
It got too loud to keep it straight
Too many words, too much to state
I tried to make it all make sense
But sense got buried in defense
I said, “It’s heavy, it’s too much”
Someone paused, said, “Yeah, it’s tough”
I felt the weight ease just a bit
Still standing in the middle of it

[Pre-Chorus]
They say it’s over, say it’s done
But some things stay when the light goes down

[Chorus]
I’m still here, under a blanket
Cold room, but I’m breathing fine
Not dangerous, not broken
Just worn down by the time
I don’t want to hurt nobody
I don’t want to prove I’m right
I’m still here —
That’s the truth tonight

[Verse 2]
I came back to a quiet space
Walls that don’t explain my place
I walk the hours, replay the sound
Of everything that broke me down
They call it rehashing old pain
I call it standing in the rain
Waiting for the storm to thin
So I can feel my skin again

[Pre-Chorus]
They say, “Just leave it in the past”
But some things don’t release that fast

[Chorus]
I’m still here, under a blanket
Cold world, but my heart’s alive
Not angry, just frustrated
Doing what it takes to survive
I don’t need a perfect ending
I don’t need a cleaner line
I’m still here —
And that’s mine

[Bridge]
Crying isn’t weakness
It’s pressure letting go
Salt in the tears, inflammation
Moving out slow
I’ve been close to losing everything
Closer than I knew
When the world feels very small
You learn what’s true

[Break / Instrumental]
(let it breathe)

[Final Chorus]
I’m still here, under a blanket
Kindness in a borrowed place
No more choosing every sentence
No more racing just to explain
If tomorrow comes quieter
I’ll take it as a sign
I’m still here —
And tonight, that’s enough
I’m still here —
And that’s mine
