Guardian of the Wreckage

Verse 1

Chained by the voices that live in my skin,

Family wars I was born into sin.

Ex left scars that never quite fade,

I’m carrying ghosts of the mess they made.

Pre-Chorus

Every scream’s a weight on my spine,

Every silence says I’ll be fine—

But I’m not, I’m cracking inside,

Still I fight, still I fight.

Chorus

I’m the guardian of the wreckage,

Bleeding out but I still stand tall.

Unheard cries in the static,

Can’t you hear me as I fall?

Left behind in the shadow,

Facing fears I’ll never show.

Drowning in the madness,

But I won’t let it go.

Verse 2

School halls burn with stress I can’t hide,

Home’s a cage with no place to confide.

Friends drift away like smoke in the rain,

I lock my heart, numb the pain.

Pre-Chorus

Every step feels like a test,

Every breath too loud in my chest.

I’m alone, I’m losing my mind,

Still I fight, still I fight.

Chorus

I’m the guardian of the wreckage,

Bleeding out but I still stand tall.

Unheard cries in the static,

Can’t you hear me as I fall?

Left behind in the shadow,

Facing fears I’ll never show.

Drowning in the madness,

But I won’t let it go.

Bridge

Fear of the unknown cuts deep in the dark,

But I’ve carried this flame, I’ve carried the spark.

Even broken, I’ll never bow down,

Even silent, I’ll still make a sound.

Final Chorus

I’m the guardian of the wreckage,

Bleeding out but I still stand tall.

Unheard cries in the static,

Can’t you hear me as I fall?

Left behind in the shadow,

Facing fears I’ll never show.

Drowning in the madness,

But I won’t let it go.
