(Instrumental Intro)
[Verse 1]
I wake up with the pressure on my chest,
It’s not a scar, but it cuts like the rest.
No face, no name, just a shadow in the room,
Dragging me down, whispering my doom.
It hides in the silence, crawls into my skin,
A battle I’m losing before it begins.
No blood, no bruises, nothing you can see,
But it’s breaking my bones, it’s devouring me.
[Pre-Chorus]
Can’t explain it, can’t show it,
But I swear I still know it.
It’s a ghost I can’t fight,
Bleeding into my nights.
[Chorus]
I’m screaming at the silence, but it won’t break,
Carrying the weight of nothing, till my bones shake.
You can’t see the chains, but they’re killing me slow,
I’m drowning in a burden that you’ll never know.
(Instrumentals)
[Verse 2]
Smile on my face but it’s stitched too tight,
Burning daylight feels colder than night.
Everyone thinks I’m fine, I’m okay,
But they don’t feel the storm that eats me away.
Eats me away!
[Pre-Chorus]
Can’t explain it, can’t show it,
But I swear I still know it.
It’s a ghost in my veins,
And it won’t say my name.
[Chorus]
I’m screaming at the silence, but it won’t break,
Carrying the weight of nothing, till my bones shake.
You can’t see the chains, but they’re killing me slow,
I’m drowning in a burden that you’ll never know.
[Bridge – Heavy Breakdown]
TEAR ME OPEN!!!
You won’t find a wound inside.
But the damage is living,
It’s a war I can’t hide.
Take this shadow, take this pain,
Give me something I can name!
[GIVE ME SOMETHING I CAN NAME!]
[GIVE ME SOMETHING I CAN NAME!]
[GIVE ME SOMETHING I CAN FUCKIN' NAME!]
[Final Chorus]
I’m screaming at the silence, but it won’t break,
Carrying the weight of nothing, till my bones shake.
You can’t see the chains, but they’re choking me whole,
I’m drowning in a burden you’ll never know.
[Outro - HEAVY SCREMING!]
IT'S THE WEIGHT OF BEING NUMB!!
IT'S THE WEIGHT OF NOTHING!!
IT'S THE WEIGHT OF DARKNESS!!
PUT ME OUT OF MY MISERY!!
PUT AN END OF THIS MISERY!!
PUT AN END OF MY FUCKIN' MISERY!!
But it’s crushing me…
