Verse 1
I don’t talk much anymore
Every word feels like a war
Keep my mouth full of broken glass
So I don’t say what I can’t take back
Everybody wants a piece of me
But I don’t even wanna be me
Mirror shows what I avoid
A walking glitch in human noise
⸻
Pre-Chorus
I bite my tongue till it bleeds out slow
Say I’m fine—yeah, I’m trained to go
⸻
Chorus
I got teeth in my silence
Pressure in my chest
Every scream I buried
Still echoes in my head
If I let it out, I might lose control
If I hold it in, it’s gonna take my soul
So I stand right here on the edge of it—
Half alive and I’m sick of it
⸻
Verse 2
Sleep don’t come, it just watches me
Counting cracks in the ceiling beams
Every second like a ticking bomb
But it never blows, it just drags me on
They say “heal,” like it’s just a switch
Like you don’t remember every inch
Of the nights that carved you hollow
And taught your shadow how to follow
⸻
Pre-Chorus
I play dead just to feel okay
But the noise won’t fade—it just rearranges
⸻
Chorus
I got teeth in my silence
Pressure in my chest
Every scream I buried
Still echoes in my head
If I let it out, I might lose control
If I hold it in, it’s gonna take my soul
So I stand right here on the edge of it—
Half alive and I’m sick of it
⸻
Bridge (Strip Down → Haunting)
If I break, don’t fix me
Let it split me clean
I don’t want your mercy
I just wanna feel something
(whisper harmonies layered underneath)
⸻
Guitar Solo 🎸 (Dirty → Emotional → Climactic)
(Slow bend intro → gritty riff → fast ascending run → feedback sustain into drop)
⸻
Final Chorus (Bigger / Layered Harmonies)
I got fire in my silence
Now it won’t stay down
All the pain I buried
Coming back too loud
If I lose control, let it all unfold
I’m done digging graves for the things I hold
Yeah I’m standing here and I’m choosing it—
All the chaos, I’m using it
⸻
Outro (Fading, haunting)
No more quiet, no more mask
Let it burn, don’t take it back
If I’m broken—let it show
At least now I finally know
