Lyrics
I’ve been running in circles, stuck in my head
Chasing the shadows of words you said
But I’m done with the tears, I’m breaking free
Time to rewire what love means to me
Erase the fear, rewrite the lines
Teach my heart to trust in time
I’m retraining my emotions, starting brand new
Breaking the chains, I’ll make a new start
Step by step, I’ll retrain my heart
Oh-oh, oh-oh, retrain my heart
Every moment’s a lesson, I’ll take it slow
Building the courage to let it go
Love’s a rhythm I’ll find again
Turning the page with a brand-new pen
Erase the fear, rewrite the lines
Teach my heart to trust in time
I’m retraining my emotions, starting brand new
Learning to love without thinking of you
Breaking the chains, I’ll make a new start
Step by step, I’ll retrain my heart
Oh-oh, oh-oh, retrain my heart
It’s not easy, but I’ll find my way
One breath at a time, day by day
With every beat, I’m closer to free
Teaching myself who I’m meant to be
I’m retraining my emotions, starting brand new
Learning to love without thinking of you
Breaking the chains, I’ll make a new start
Oh-oh, oh-oh, retrain my heart
Now I’m stronger, I’ve come so far
Retrained emotions, a shining star
Oh-oh, oh-oh, retrain my heart
A brand-new rhythm, a work of art
