Verse 1

Walk in the room, keeping my voice down low
Carrying tides that nobody seems to know
The weight in my chest keeps rising with the night
But there’s a quiet fire burning in my eyes

Chorus

I’m still searching for where I belong
Tracing a map when the compass feels wrong
It’s a long, quiet road and the steps may be slow
But I keep moving forward with nowhere else to go
Yeah, I keep moving forward through the heavy and the cold

Verse 2

People see silence and think that I’m fine
Missing the longing I keep locked inside
Like autumn leaves falling, I’m learning to let go
Trusting the moonlit path only I know

Bridge

It’s okay if the answers don’t come tonight
Even in the deepest dark, I’m reaching for the light

Outro

Still searching…
Still finding my place…
Step by step, at my own quiet pace.
