Memories of the past

**Verse 1:** In the shadows of your memories, you lie awake at night Broken pieces of your heart, hidden out of sight He whispered sweet deceits, promises he’d never keep You gave him all you had, now it's only tears you weep **Verse 2:** Every tear you’ve cried, has a story it could tell Of nights you felt so empty, trapped in a living hell But you’re stronger than you know, and brighter days await The past is just a chapter, it’s never too late **Pre-Chorus:** You were ready to give your all, but he tore your world apart Now you’re wrapped in walls so high, guarding your shattered heart **Chorus:** But you can rise above the pain, don’t let the past define your name The storm will pass, the scars will fade, your heart will learn to love again You were never at fault, it’s not your shame to bear So let the healing start, breathe in the new air **Verse 3:** Remember who you were before, the laughter and the dreams The girl who’d light the darkest night, with her endless beams You’re not the sum of broken parts, you’re more than what he left Reclaim your heart, your love, your life, and take a deep, full breath **Pre-Chorus:** Don’t let his betrayal be the end of your light You’re a phoenix in the ashes, ready for flight **Chorus:** You can rise above the pain, don’t let the past define your name The storm will pass, the scars will fade, your heart will learn to love again You were never at fault, it’s not your shame to bear So let the healing start, breathe in the new air **Bridge:** It’s okay to feel the hurt, but don’t dwell on what’s been done Forgiveness is a gift, not for him, but for you to overcome You deserve the love you give, and more than he could see Hold on to hope, and set your spirit free **Verse 4:** Step out from the shadows, let your heart take flight You’re a beacon in the darkness, shining oh so bright Leave behind the sorrow, leave behind the pain Find the strength within you, let love heal again **Verse 5:** The road ahead is open, your journey’s just begun With every step you take, you’re moving towards the sun No more looking backwards, no more feeling small You’re stronger now than ever, ready to stand tall **Pre-Chorus:** Don’t let his betrayal be the end of your light You’re a phoenix in the ashes, ready for flight **Chorus:** You can rise above the pain, don’t let the past define your name The storm will pass, the scars will fade, your heart will learn to love again You were never at fault, it’s not your shame to bear So let the healing start, breathe in the new air **Outro:** So take a step into the light, and let your soul be free You’ve survived the darkest night, now embrace your destiny The future’s waiting for you, with open arms so wide You’ll find the love you’re worthy of, and leave the past behind
