I'm still breathing
Nothing is over
Because all this pain will come to mean something
Tick-tock, the ticking second hand blames me
The cut-out past becomes a chain
Still unable to break free, the same scene again
But my heart still says, "save me"
The fading boundary of emotions
A state where I don't even know what's right
Even so, the regrets I've chosen
I keep telling myself they weren't meaningless
All night
A heart that feels like it's breaking
It's okay to keep holding it
Because it's here
The light hasn't gone out
I'm still breathing
Nothing is over
Because all this pain will come to mean something
Even if I feel like collapsing, I have a reason to rise
Moving beyond the yesterday I couldn't protect
I'm still breathing
A fading positive mindset
Every time I pray for peace, morning comes without sleep
Seeing myself reflected in every single drop of heavy rain
I vow, "I'll protect everything"
It's okay if I become a rag
Even in unforeseen circumstances
I look beyond the wound
So I won't lose my way after this
I won't let the light of precious lives go out
I'm still breathing
Nothing is over
Because all this pain will come to mean something
Even if I feel like collapsing, I have a reason to rise
Moving beyond the yesterday I couldn't protect
I'm still breathing
Even if loneliness crushes me when I'm alone
I'm still moving forward, one step at a time
Even with these trembling hands
If I can still hold someone close
I'm still breathing
To the other side of the unceasing noise
I'm still breathing
Nothing is over
Because all this pain will come to mean something
Even if I feel like collapsing, I have a reason to rise
Moving beyond the yesterday I couldn't protect
I'm still breathing
A chain of failures flashing back
With no right answer anywhere
The trembling of my clenched hand is still
Proof that I'm alive, yes now (I'm still breathing)
A night when I want to run away
But don't hide
The boundary between ideals and reality
It's okay to remain unfinished
This is the process, not the end
I'm still breathing
