Chorus
You know I'm
Only trying to shine
Searching for the signs
To find some peace of mind
And finally let the light in
I'm not just saying goodbye
I'm reclaiming wasted time
Trying to find some peace of mind
And finally let the light in
Finally, let the light in
Refrain
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know I'm
Only trying to shine
Searching for the signs
To find some peace of mind
And finally let the light in
I'm not just saying goodbye
I'm reclaiming wasted time
Trying to find some peace of mind
And finally let the light in
Verse 1
I remember empty desks
And teachers asking less
Like I faded in the crowd
Just a name they could guess
Lunch tray cold
Fake friends on the fence
So I learned to pretend
Built a wall for defence
Used to speak in a whisper
Afraid of the mess
Kept my thoughts in a vault
Heart pounding in my chest
Tried to master the silence
But it echoed too loud
So I buried the hurt
Just to blend with the crowd
But that version of me
Couldn't carry the weight
Had to look in the mirror
Had to rebuild my faith
Now the lessons I bled
Are the ink in my lines
Every bruise that I hid
Got me closer to mine
Started standing up
I started taking chances
Started asking questions
Finally getting answers
Found my voice in the cracks
Of the doubt and the noise
Turned the fear into fuel
Turned the loss into choice
Every no that I heard
Just carved out a lane
I ain't chasing their light
I've been building my flame
Now I walk with intention
Every step got a reason
Used to crave some faith
Now I finally believe it
Chorus
You know I'm
Only trying to shine
Searching for the signs
To find some peace of mind
And finally let the light in
I'm not just saying goodbye
I'm reclaiming wasted time
Trying to find some peace of mind
And finally let the light in
Verse 2
Yeah
I had to sit with the dark
Just to know what it meant
Had to lose who I was
Just to see where I went
I kept running from peace
Like it came with a cost
But the light never left
It was buried in loss
Now I breathe a little deeper
Let the old pain thin
No more closing the curtains
I'mma let it all in
If I'm saying goodbye
It ain't out of regret
It's hello to the person
I ain't fully been yet
So let it shine through
Every scar, every sin
I was lost in my mind
Now I let the light in
Chorus
You know I'm
Only trying to shine
Searching for the signs
To find some peace of mind
And finally let the light in
I'm not just saying goodbye
I'm reclaiming wasted time
Trying to find some peace of mind
And finally let the light in
Final Chorus
You know I'm
Only trying to shine
I was lost inside my mind
Now I'm healing line by line
And finally let the light in
I'm only trying to shine
Searching for the signs
To find some peace of mind
And finally let the light in
Outro
I'm not just saying goodbye
I'm reclaiming wasted time
Trying to find some peace of mind
And finally let the light in
You know I'm
Only trying to shine
I was lost inside my mind
Now I'm healing line by line
And finally let the light in
