I thought that all of this would break me
Tare down what little I had left
But instead it has made me stronger
My understanding of death that is
Has left behind marks and not wonder
I will carry the scars of each battle fought
Before I wouldn’t have seen them as victories
But now, I understand which side is winning
I understand that when the end comes
It’s inevitable but when it comes, it offers up peace
No more wars to wage, no longer consumed by pain
I think death will always be scary
The idea of not truly knowing what comes next
But know that after the suffering comes peace
Well, that is enough for me to let everyone go free
