Lyric

Holding one cold stone in my hand

I quietly tell the night it’s ending

Shadows fade, the dawn is near

I face the truth without a fear

Locked in a room, knees to my chest

I stayed there telling myself “don’t get hurt”

I scribbled excuses on the walls

Like they could keep me safe

The girl in the mirror tried to smile

But her eyes were breaking through

So I looked away, pretended

I didn’t see the truth

What I was guarding wasn’t pride

Just a fragile fear in disguise

The breath I held is burning now

Deep in my chest, it’s time

I won’t run anymore

I finally chose

With trembling hands I choose my future

The white I offer cuts the dark in two

Breaking out of my own cage

Turning over a new page

What falls apart is who I was before

Goodbye to the crying ghost

Repeating rules, tracing the same days

Searching for “right” till I got lost

But on this board, it’s only me

Every move is mine to make

To win or lose, to stay or go

The choice was always free

One move melts the frozen time

It rings for no one else but me

The voice I locked away inside

Is ready to be free

I open it now

To breathe again

What this hand holds is a real ending

A single light that clears the blackened haze

Say goodbye to yesterday

I will find my own way

On the other side of the mirror

I stare back, unafraid

I’m stepping past who I used to be

The weakness I called my enemy

The doubts, the fear, the regret

They were always parts of me

I couldn’t leave behind

There are places you can only reach

By choosing to forgive

I leave every answer right here behind me

With shaking legs, I kick the ground and run

Checkmate to the fear inside

Now I have nothing left to hide

Among the ruins, I finally smiled

Come on—

The door is open now

At the moment where endings meet beginnings

A white piece signals the quiet dawn

Game is over, I am free

This is who I’m meant to be
