Learning How to Breathe

Описание: Learning How to Breathe Again — Official Song

Learning How to Breathe Again is a quiet-power survival song about leaving emotional abuse and slowly reclaiming your body, your voice, and your right to exist without fear.

This song isn’t about revenge. It’s about what happens after you escape — when silence becomes safe again, when peace stops feeling dangerous, and when breathing no longer hurts.

💔 Themes:

Healing after emotional abuse

Trauma survival and recovery

Reclaiming identity and safety

Choosing yourself without apology

🕯️ Why this song matters:

It names the invisible scars people carry

It honors how survival is often quiet, not loud

It gives language to the moment you realize: I’m still here

✨ Core message:
You don’t have to minimize what hurt you to move forward. Surviving is proof enough.

🎧 For listeners who:

Are healing from narcissistic or emotional abuse

Are relearning how to feel safe in their own body

Are rebuilding after walking away from someone who broke them

💛 Affirmation:
You were never owned. You were never small. You are still here.

Verse 1
I learned silence from the way you stood
Like every word might start a fire
I learned to read the mood in a room
By the flicker in your eyes
I held my breath for far too long
Tryin’ not to make a sound
Forgot what air felt like in my lungs
Forgot I was allowed

Verse 2
I learned to flinch at open doors
And sleep with the lights on low
I learned how love can feel like war
When you don’t know where it’ll go
I wore your anger like a coat
Heavy even in July
You said I was the reason you broke
But I was the one barely alive

Pre-Chorus
Now I’m standing in the quiet
With my hands still shaking some
But the ground beneath my boots
Feels solid where I’m from

Chorus
I’m learning how to breathe again
Slow and steady, in and out
Learning I don’t have to earn
The right to speak, the right to doubt
I survived the nights I thought
Would bury me in fear
I’m not who I was when I was his
I’m still here

Verse 3
I carry scars you’ll never see
In the way I brace for storms
In the way I apologize
For just being warm
Some days the past comes back around
Like smoke I taste but can’t outrun
But I don’t live inside that house anymore
I burned it down and walked off strong

Pre-Chorus 2
I don’t need to rewrite the truth
Or soften what he did
I made it out, that’s proof enough
That I was never his

Chorus
I’m learning how to breathe again
Air don’t hurt the way it did
Learning peace don’t have to feel
Like waiting for the hit
I survived the hands that tried
To make me disappear
I’m not who I was when I was his
I’m still here

Bridge (dark, stripped)
I won’t pretend it didn’t break me
I won’t dress the damage up
But every step away from him
Feels like reclaiming blood
I don’t hate him, I don’t chase him
I don’t carry him around
I just chose myself the day
I finally walked out

Final Chorus (bigger, resolute)
I’m learning how to breathe again
With my head held level now
Learning strength don’t always roar
Sometimes it’s just standing your ground
He doesn’t get my future
He doesn’t get my fear
I’m not who I was when I was his
I’m still here

Outro
Yeah, I’m still here
And I can finally breathe.
