The Escape I Seek

[Intro]
In the silence, sometimes I find relief
From the chaos that life dishes out
Hold on, I’m searching for some peace
In the shadows, I wanna fade out

[Verse 1]
Family ties, they can cut so deep
Like wounds that never seem to heal
Joy turns to pain, secrets we keep
A heavy weight I can't conceal

[Pre-Chorus]
Every laugh feels like a chain
Every voice echoes in my mind
Wish I could escape the pain
Leave the world behind

[Chorus]
Sometimes death feels like an open door
A quiet sanctuary I long for
Running from the world’s cruel game
Yearning for nothingness, not shame

[Verse 2]
Years of tears, lines on my face
Battles fought within my soul
Family faces I can’t replace
Losing control is taking its toll

[Pre-Chorus]
Every smile masks a cry
Every word cuts like a blade
Want to just say goodbye
Escape this masquerade

[Chorus]
Sometimes death feels like an open door
A quiet sanctuary I long for
Running from the world’s cruel game
Yearning for nothingness, not shame

[Bridge]
Is there peace beyond this life?
Or is it just over, done, goodbye?
In the dark, I question why
Is this the only way to fly?

[Outro]
If only I could find release
From this pain that never ends
Maybe death’s the greatest peace
Maybe my real journey begins
