Echoes of the Fall

Fading lights, blurry visions in my mind

Chasing highs, trying to leave the pain behind

Late nights, empty bottles and a fleeting glow

White lines, crossing lines I shouldn’t know

Lost in the echo of the past I can't erase

Searching for a moment of sweet, reckless grace

But deep inside, I hear the silent cry

Questions lingering, wondering why

What’s the cost to feel again?

Is it freedom or just the pain?

Caught in the addiction’s hold, I feel alive, I feel cold

Running from the heartache, seeking solace in the smoke

Is this the fix I need, or just a temporary release?

In the end, will I drown or find my peace?

Why did it start so long ago?

A love, a fear, a silent sorrow I don’t show

Every hit, every sip, takes me further from the truth

But I keep on, nothing else to lose

If this is how it's gonna make me feel in the end

Am I just chasing shadows, or trying to find myself again?

Fading into the night, caught in the endless fight
