Lyrics

Verse 1
There’s a crack in the mirror where my face used to be,
A shadow that hums “You’re not who you used to see.”
I built a fortress of stone, but the walls turned to sand,
Even though my world is in my hands—I don’t know who I am.

Pre-Chorus
My old skin’s ash, with the wind still warm,
I’m tracing ghosts in the eye of a storm.
No compass, no map—just the ache that I bear,
Whispers of “Who am I?”… and … “Why do I care?”

Chorus
I’m replacing a soul with light I’ve regrown,
A mosaic of bits that I’m learning to own.
Yeah, the fractures still hum, but they’re creating me anew—
Shattered pieces, held together without glue.
Scattered pieces, missing from my view.

Verse 2
I dug through the wreckage, found a shard labeled “life!,”
Buried under “I'm overwhelmed” and “too much strife.”
Now I’m stitching in silence where the void once screamed,
Each thread’s a rebellion—a life to be redeemed.

Pre-Chorus
Some nights, I still flinch at the sound of that name,
But the tremors carve rivers where courage now rains.
The echoes? They lie. I must integrate the truth—
I hold my shattered pieces, all out of glue.

Chorus
I’m replacing a soul with light I’ve regrown,
A mosaic of bits that I’m learning to own.
Yeah, the fractures still hum, but they’re creating me anew—
Shattered pieces, held together without glue.
Scattered pieces, some missing from my view.

Bridge
I feel like I'm the only one drowning in this universe,
But the cosmos was built by collisions of neutralness.
The stars don’t apologize for burning their lights—
So I’ll blaze with my scars, unphased by dark nights.

Outro
I'll never be fully “healed.”
Not sure if I'm even “healing.”
I feel a burrowing breath from parts I thought deleted,
I'm trying to build a home where my wild things can stay,
As I try to call it “mine” every daunting day.
