Lyrics
Sunrise painting the window pane / Another day, another ache
Sunrise painting the window pane / Another day, another ache
Same old story, different name / My own prison for goodness sake
Same old story, different name / My own prison for goodness sake
Coffee cold on the kitchen chair / Silence louder than my breath
Coffee cold on the kitchen chair / Silence louder than my breath
Running circles everywhere / Learning slowly what it meant
Running circles everywhere / Learning slowly what it meant
Shadows whisper lies / Reflections I despise / Every broken line / Drawn across my mind
Shadows whisper lies / Reflections I despise / Every broken line / Drawn across my mind
I am my own savior / No one else can save me
I am my own savior / No one else can save me
Breaking every behavior / Setting my spirit free
Breaking every behavior / Setting my spirit free
My own savior / Finally me
My own savior / Finally me
Used to chase the fleeting light / Hoping someone else would see
Used to chase the fleeting light / Hoping someone else would see
Lost myself in endless night / Forgot who I was meant to be
Lost myself in endless night / Forgot who I was meant to be
Promises like fading smoke / Every word just slipped away
Promises like fading smoke / Every word just slipped away
Truth I never really spoke / Buried deeper every day
Truth I never really spoke / Buried deeper every day
Whispers turn to roars / Echo through the floors / No more silent wars / Kicking down the doors
Whispers turn to roars / Echo through the floors / No more silent wars / Kicking down the doors
I am my own savior / No one else can save me / Breaking every behavior / Setting my spirit free
I am my own savior / No one else can save me / Breaking every behavior / Setting my spirit free
My own savior / Finally me
My own savior / Finally me
All the mirrors start to crack / Every mask begins to fall
All the mirrors start to crack / Every mask begins to fall
All the weight upon my back / Never mine to hold at all
All the weight upon my back / Never mine to hold at all
Every scar becomes a map / Every tear a guiding flame / Every step I’m taking back / Rewriting my own name
Every scar becomes a map / Every tear a guiding flame / Every step I’m taking back / Rewriting my own name
No more hiding fear / Truth is standing here / Every doubt unclear / Disappears this year
No more hiding fear / Truth is standing here / Every doubt unclear / Disappears this year
I am my own savior / No one else can save me / Breaking every behavior / Setting my spirit free
I am my own savior / No one else can save me / Breaking every behavior / Setting my spirit free
My own savior / Finally me
My own savior / Finally me
I am my own savior / Through the storm and fire / Rising from the failure / Climbing ever higher
I am my own savior / Through the storm and fire / Rising from the failure / Climbing ever higher
My own savior / Finally free
My own savior / Finally free
No more waiting for a hand / No more begging fate to see / Every answer that I planned / Was always inside of me
No more waiting for a hand / No more begging fate to see / Every answer that I planned / Was always inside of me
Every shadow fades away / Every chain begins to break / I can finally hear myself / In every choice I make
Every shadow fades away / Every chain begins to break / I can finally hear myself / In every choice I make
I am my own savior / No one else can save me / Breaking every behavior / Setting my spirit free
I am my own savior / No one else can save me / Breaking every behavior / Setting my spirit free
I am my own savior / Standing in the light / All the darkest layers / Turning into sight
I am my own savior / Standing in the light / All the darkest layers / Turning into sight
My own savior / Finally me / My own savior / Finally free
My own savior / Finally me / My own savior / Finally free
