Lost in worlds I can't comprehend

Searching for myself again

Fell through the cracks of a shattered sky

Thought I knew the life I was living in

But the reflection’s a stranger now

A ghost that I can't begin to seize

Faced with the mask I wear every day

Pretending the silence doesn't say

That deep inside, I feel the void

A buried truth I can't avoid

In this illusion, I hide from the real

Pretending everything's the way it used to feel

Trying to break free, from the chain of denial

Hoping someday I'll find my truth in the trial

Walking a line between who I am and who they see

A shadow play of a man I used to be

Dressing in the skin of someone else’s choice

Silenced by fear, drowned in my own voice

But I’m tired of playing pretend

Longing for the truth to mend

The cracks in my broken mind

Seeking the freedom I can't find

In this illusion, I hide from the real

Pretending everything's the way it used to feel

Trying to break free, from the chain of denial

Hoping someday I'll find my truth in the trial

Could I ever really flee this cage?

Step beyond the ghostly stage?

Let the walls of fear collapse

And rediscover what’s intact?

Maybe one day I’ll see the dawn

Leave the shadows, move beyond

Till then, I hold this hope inside

To face the truth I cannot hide

Falling, rising, in my mind’s dismay

Searching for the light of day
