Crown Back On

You left a shadow on the mirror

But I can see my face again

I wore your silence like a scar

Now I'm breathing through the pain

I was burning just to fit your shame

Now I'm standing straighter than before

Every tear you thought would break me down

Turns to fire at the core

I'm breakin' my light, breakin' my skin

No more shrinking to let you in

I gave you love, you gave me doubt

That I'm not the girl you love behind now

I'm back in my mind, watch me rise

From the ashes, from a different goodbye

You lost your hope, I found my name

And am I claiming everything?

I keep the good parts, leave the rest

I don't need your version of me

I'm a headline in my own life now

Louder than I used to be

I was born just to fit your sheet

Now I′m standing straighter than before

Every tear you thought would break me down

Turns to fire at the core

I'm back in my life

Back in my skin

No more shrinking to let you in

I saved your love

You gave me doubt

But I′m not the girl you left behind now

I'm back in my life

From the ashes, from the dead, from goodbye

You lost your hope, I found my name

And I'm reclaiming everything

So keep the memories, I'll keep the crown

I'm done with looking for your approval now

What you called ending was my begin

And I'm stepping back into the spotlight again

I'm back in my life, back in my skin

No more shrinking to let you in

I gave you love, you gave me doubt

But I'm not the girl you left behind now

I'm back in my life, watch me rise

Press my head high, in my heart I lie

You lost your hope, I found my name

And I'm reclaiming every moment

Back in my life

Back in my life
