From the Day I Didn’t Know I Died by Tony Gibbs
All rights reserved © ℗ 2025 Tony Gibbs

Woke to the glow of machines in the dark,
Intensive care re-mapping my heart.
Five litres lost while I slept through the fight—
Didn’t know death brushed past me that night.

The scar’s healing fast, but beneath the skin,
There’s a long road home I’m learning again.

They say I made it, but I’m changed inside,
From the day I didn’t know I died.
Got a nine-year-old boy I’m here to guide,
Building back trust with every stride.
Yeah, I’m still healing, still terrified—
From the day I didn’t know I died.

Walking more steps but I’m strange in my skin,
Outside looks better than the inside’s been.
He laughs like sunrise, that boy of mine—
I hope his joy outruns my borrowed time.

Nights get quiet, but the doubts get loud,
Questions I can’t say out loud.

They say I made it, but I’m changed inside,
From the day I didn’t know I died.
Got a nine-year-old boy I’m here to guide,
Building back trust with every stride.
Yeah, I’m still healing, still terrified—
From the day I didn’t know I died.

Maybe “me again” ain’t who I’ll be—
Maybe I’m learning a braver version of me.

They say I made it, but I’m here to stay—
Stronger in a quiet, different way.
Got a boy I hope life lets me guide,
A few more years walking by his side.
I’ll keep healing with every sunrise—
From the day I didn’t know I died.

Ashes on the Wedding Dress by Tony Gibbs
All rights reserved © ℗ 2025 Tony Gibbs

The lace still smells of summer rain,
Your vows still carved in my maiden name. 
You swore forever under that oak, 
Now the roots remember what you broke.

There's ashes on the wedding dress, 
where the fire kissed the lies you left. 
I won't beg, I won't confess, 
Love don't die, it just learns revenge. 
The church bells quiet, the moon won't rest,
And there's ashes on the wedding dress. 

Your footprints danced on another's floor, 
I heard the truth through a slamming door. 
Every tear that hit this ground,
Bloomed into flames that circle around.

There's ashes on the wedding dress, 
Where the fire kissed the lies you left. 
I won't beg, I won't confess,
Love don't die, it just learns revenge. 
The church bells quiet, the moon won't rest,
And there's ashes on the wedding dress.

Maybe mercy's what I owe,
But there's a seed that just won't grow. 
You taught me faith, then you taught me sin,
And I can't tell where one begins. 

There's ashes on the wedding dress,
And the smoke still wears her scent. 
I won't cry, I won't regret,
Love don't fade, it just resurrects. 
The past is buried, the truth's confessed, 
Under ashes on the wedding dress. 

And I walk away in white and grey.

I Break Out by Tony Gibbs
All rights reserved © ℗ 2025 Tony Gibbs

New city lights on my skin again,
False starts echo like old ghosts in the wind.
Packed my fears in a midnight bag,
Left my heart but I never looked.
Look I’ve been running from the cold —
Now I’m running to the flame.

I was paper-thin, but I learned to bend,
Turn the breaks into power I can’t defend.
My dreams are mine — no more pretence

This moment’s where I begin…

I BREAK OUT — harder, louder,
Feel the fire under my skin.
I BREAK OUT — nothing can drown me,
Hear my heartbeat kicking in.
I BREAK OUT — I BREAK OUT.

No roots down but I keep on moving,
Every heartbreak brutally proven.
Every fall was a pulse that taught me
Pain fades fast when the beat gets on me.
I’m insecure but I learn like thunder —
Hit me once, come back stronger.

I was paper-thin, now I’m wired in steel,
Every scar just sharpens what I feel.
This is mine — this fire is real.

I BREAK OUT — harder, louder,
Feel the fire under my skin.
I BREAK OUT — nothing can drown me,
Hear my heartbeat kicking in.
I BREAK OUT — I BREAK OUT.

Burned before — but fire’s my halo.
Every fall just taught me how
To rise through smoke, through fear, through doubt —
Watch me now.
Watch. Me. Break. Out.

I BREAK OUT — harder, louder,
Feel the fire under my skin.
I BREAK OUT — no fear, no silence,
Hear my heartbeat kicking in.
I BREAK OUT — I BREAK OUT
