Alone Becoming

Lyrics: Niko Jarell Music: Niko Jarell The room feels bigger than before Footsteps echo on the floor I used to need a hand to hold Now I face the night alone Shadows stretch across the wall Soft reminders I recall Every laugh and every tear Taught me courage through the fear I tried to lean I tried to stay But some paths lead another way Becoming alone find my voice learning slowly to make my choice I carry a love that's soft and true And build a life from what I knew I don't collapse I don't pretend I walk with strength around each bend Becoming alone quiet free discovering what it means to be Everything float like distant rain Piano hums a gentle strain Bass pulse is softly underneath Carrying stories I can't speak I've learned to laugh I learned to cry It's all that two can teach the why No bitterness no need to fight Just understanding through the night Silence speaks the things I missed Guiding me with it‘s gentle twilight Becoming alone find my voice Learning slowly to make my choice I carry a love that's soft and true And build a life from what I knew I don't collapse I don't pretend I walk with strength around each bend Becoming alone quiet free discovering what it means to be Not every step needs someone near Some lessons come when hearts are clear I walk forward I embrace the quiet space The open voice Coming alone yet I stay Holding courage in my head I'm moving softly I'm moving free Learning the depth of being me Becoming alone tender true Finding the life I'm in To push us who still here Still all We coming alone We coming alone Quiet breath Soft lives ecoming alone
