There was a night that never ended — it just learned how to hide inside my bones. Verse 1 The night still lives behind my eyes It breathes inside my sleep A thousand shattered memories Are secrets that I keep They took the silence from the room And something broke in me Now every mirror feels like glass That shows a ghost where I should be Pre-Chorus I walk through days like borrowed time A shadow in the light The world keeps spinning like before But I’m still in that night Chorus I’m living in a body that isn’t mine Wearing a smile I learned to design The girl I was is somewhere far Buried beneath a silent scar And love feels like a language now I used to speak somehow I try, I try, but every time I’m living in a body that isn’t mine Verse 2 They say that healing takes its time But time can’t reach this pain There’s winter sleeping in my bones Like endless falling rain I learned to laugh, I learned to stand Pretend that I’m okay But silence screams inside my chest When night turns into day How could you? Tell me how you sleep at night How could you Walk away without a scar You left a war inside my chest While you forgot who you are How could you Leave me buried here alive You stole a life you’ll never see The girl I was before you Is a stranger now to me Chorus The girl I was is somewhere far Lost in the echo of a scar And love feels like a language now I used to speak somehow I try, I try, but every time I’m living in a body that isn’t mine GÄNSEHAUT BRIDGE (extra emotional) Sometimes I touch my own two hands Just to feel if they are real Sometimes I look into the dark And ask myself to feel Where did the girl I used to be Disappear that night? Did she fade into the silence Or hide inside the light? But somewhere underneath the pain A fragile spark survives A quiet breath that still insists On staying here alive Final Chorus (bigger) Still living in a body that isn’t mine Still learning how to breathe in time The girl I lost may never return But somewhere in the ashes burns A tiny flame I can't deny A breath that refuses to die So I keep walking through the night In this broken body that isn’t mine Maybe one day this body will feel like home again… but tonight it’s still a place I’m trying to survive. Somewhere inside the ruins of me… a small light is still refusing to die.
Lyrics
There was a night that never ended —
it just learned how to hide inside my bones.
The night still lives behind my eyes
It breathes inside my sleep
A thousand shattered memories
Are secrets that I keep
They took the silence from the room
And something broke in me
Now every mirror feels like glass
That shows a ghost where I should be
I walk through days like borrowed time
A shadow in the light
The world keeps spinning like before
But I’m still in that night
I’m living in a body that isn’t mine
Wearing a smile I learned to design
The girl I was is somewhere far
Buried beneath a silent scar
And love feels like a language now
I used to speak somehow
I try, I try, but every time
I’m living in a body that isn’t mine
They say that healing takes its time
But time can’t reach this pain
There’s winter sleeping in my bones
Like endless falling rain
I learned to laugh, I learned to stand
Pretend that I’m okay
But silence screams inside my chest
When night turns into day
How could you?
Tell me how you sleep at night
How could you
Walk away without a scar
You left a war inside my chest
While you forgot who you are
How could you
Leave me buried here alive
You stole a life you’ll never see
The girl I was before you
Is a stranger now to me
The girl I was is somewhere far
Lost in the echo of a scar
And love feels like a language now
I used to speak somehow
I try, I try, but every time
I’m living in a body that isn’t mine
Sometimes I touch my own two hands
Just to feel if they are real
Sometimes I look into the dark
And ask myself to feel
Where did the girl I used to be
Disappear that night?
Did she fade into the silence
Or hide inside the light?
But somewhere underneath the pain
A fragile spark survives
A quiet breath that still insists
On staying here alive
Still living in a body that isn’t mine
Still learning how to breathe in time
The girl I lost may never return
But somewhere in the ashes burns
A tiny flame I can't deny
A breath that refuses to die
So I keep walking through the night
In this broken body that isn’t mineMaybe one day this body will feel like home again…
but tonight it’s still a place I’m trying to survive.
Somewhere inside the ruins of me…
a small light is still refusing to die.
