Still Breathing Somehow
“Still Breathing Somehow”
Verse 1
I’ve been holding on to pieces of a life I barely knew,
Trying not to fall apart with every thought of you.
Nights were getting colder, and the silence felt like stone,
I was fighting just to feel like I wasn’t on my own.
Pre‑Chorus
And I was breaking, shaking,
Hoping all this hurt was fading.
Chorus
But I’m still breathing somehow,
Even when the world shut me out.
I’m standing here, though I don’t know how —
I made it through the worst of it now.
I’m still breathing somehow.
Verse 2
I was drowning in the memories I couldn’t leave behind,
Searching for a reason not to lose my mind.
You won’t see the battles that I fought inside my chest,
But every scar I carry shows I did my best.
Pre‑Chorus
And I was breaking, shaking,
Hoping all this hurt was fading.
Chorus
But I’m still breathing somehow,
Even when the world shut me out.
I’m standing here, though I don’t know how —
I made it through the worst of it now.
I’m still breathing
