They gave me a chance to live again and not to stay alone

My head was clear and right now I could do anything
Find my way back home without asking or begging
There had been a weight on me since I first tried to hide
But somehow now I'm not afraid to try
I'll guide my wounds to heal on their own
What I've been through the world will never know
