The Exit Door

Verse 1

They counted every scar I wore,

Like I was nothing, nothing more.

Every tear became a stone,

I learned to stand here on my own.

Every battle left a mark,

Every sunrise chased the dark.

Now the echoes fuel my soul,

They'll never take away my goal.

Pre-Chorus

You can bend me, you can shake me,

But you'll never watch me break.

Every storm became a lesson,

Every step I chose to take.

Chorus

I've walked through rain,

I've walked through fire.

I've felt the pain,

But I'll never tire.

I've been through hell,

I've walked its burning floors.

But even then,

I found the exit door.

I know what it's like to be down,

To feel like I belong in the ground.

But now that I've survived...

I'd face those flames again,

Just to keep my friends.

Verse 2

Now when someone starts to fall,

I hear their silent, desperate call.

I remember every night

I searched the darkness for a light.

If my story gives them hope,

If it helps them learn to cope,

Then every wound was worth the fight,

Because together we can rise.

Bridge

Heroes aren't born wearing crowns,

Sometimes they're the ones knocked down.

Every scar became my guide,

Every fear I left behind.

If tomorrow tests my soul,

I'll keep walking through it all.

Love is stronger than the pain,

So I'll stand up once again.

Final Chorus

I've walked through rain,

I've walked through fire.

I've felt the pain,

But I'll never tire.

I've been through hell,

I've walked its burning floors.

But even then,

I found the exit door.

I know what it's like to be down,

To feel like I belong in the ground.

But now that I've survived...

I'd face those flames again,

Just to keep my friends.

Outro

If one heart keeps beating because I stayed,

Then every battle was a price I'd gladly pay.

I've walked through fire...

And I'd do it all again.
