The air feels heavy, the sky’s turned gray,

I’ve been standing here, but I can’t stay.

The echoes of your voice still linger near,

But it’s time to let go of the weight of tears.

Every step feels harder, every breath’s a fight,

But I’m chasing the dawn at the end of this night.

I’m walking away slowly, leaving the past behind,

Each step a little closer to peace I hope to find.

The pain will fade like shadows at the break of day,

I’m walking away slowly, but I’m finding my way.

The pictures on the wall don’t stare like they used to,

The melodies we shared now play out of tune.

I’ve held onto the pieces for far too long,

But I’m learning how to sing my own song.

The road is uncertain, but it’s mine to take,

With every goodbye, a new path I’ll make.

I’m walking away slowly, leaving the past behind,

Each step a little closer to peace I hope to find.

The pain will fade like shadows at the break of day,

I’m walking away slowly, but I’m finding my way.

It’s not forgetting, it’s not regret,

It’s the only way to live without being upset.

The scars will remind me of all I’ve been through,

But they’re part of the story that’s leading me to you.

I’m walking away slowly, leaving the past behind,

Each step a little closer to peace I hope to find.

The pain will fade like shadows at the break of day,

I’m walking away slowly, but I’m finding my way.

The weight is lifting, the clouds roll apart,

I’m carrying nothing but an open heart.

I’m walking away slowly, the hurt starts to stray,

One step at a time, I’m moving today.
