Fading light

Woke up to another fight,

Same war, different night.

Breathing in but it’s so damn hard,

Another day with a broken body.

Tried to find a spark inside,

Something real to hold my mind.

But every mirror tells me lies,

Every shadow whispers, “Why?”

(Pre-Chorus)

I’m screaming, but no one hears,

Just echoes bouncing off my fears.

I’ve held on longer than I should,

But I don’t know if I still could.

(Chorus)

Oh, I tried, I swore I did,

But the weight is pulling in.

Fading light, I’m caving in,

I don’t know where I begin.

If there’s a reason, let it show,

’Cause I don’t wanna go.

(Verse 2)

Count the pills, count the scars,

Every wish just feels too far.

People say, “You’re not alone,”

But the silence chills my bones.

Tired eyes, heavy chest,

Begging for a little rest.

Tried to climb, tried to fight,

But the dark won’t let in light.

(Pre-Chorus)

I’m screaming, but no one hears,

Just echoes bouncing off my fears.

I’ve held on longer than I should,

But I don’t know if I still could.

(Chorus)

Oh, I tried, I swore I did,

But the weight is pulling in.

Fading light, I’m caving in,

I don’t know where I begin.

If there’s a reason, let it show,

’Cause I don’t wanna go.

(Bridge)

One last step, one last breath,

Tell me, will they miss me yet?

If I fade, if I fall,

Did I ever matter at all?

(Outro)

Whispered names in the wind,

A story left with no end.

Fading light, slipping slow,

I didn’t wanna go…
