Even as her life is chipped away by other people's words, a young girl quietly grows her own voice in silence. Starting from the feelings of being denied, something most people have likely experienced, I tried to capture in rock form the moment of breaking away from the violence of words. With an aggressive structure and a tightly wound progression, I wrote and composed this song to evoke the climb from oppression to resistance, and finally to the resolve to reclaim her own life.
The unforgettable violence I endured at the age of five, having my skin torn away countless times. The despair brought on by five separate periods of bullying. I experienced school refusal, which was rare at the time, and lived my life in profound isolation. My hope is that those who struggle with the pain of simply living, just as I did back then, can breathe even a little easier. To channel all of that pain into music, I began composing on April 5, 2025.
