Echoes of the Mind

[Intro]
Thought of a mind lost in doubt, shadows whisper, feelings clout

[Verse 1]
Words can cut like shattered glass, bleeding past, can’t surpass
Did I break something that was fragile, something I couldn’t see, couldn’t handle?
Thoughts racing in a silent scream, chasing what isn’t real, what might’ve been
Is it wrong to question, to be unkind, or just a mirror showing my own mind?

[Pre-Chorus]
If pain becomes too deep to hide, I wonder where you’d run, where you’d hide
Can’t bear the blame, can’t face the shame, but still I ask, was it all in vain?

[Chorus]
If someone falls because of me, I’d never want that to be
A reason, a truth, a silent cry, beneath a hollow sky
It's ridiculous, insane to think, who bears the burden, who sinks?
No, I don’t deserve that pain, I'll only bear my own disdain

[Verse 2]
Secrets kept in wounded hearts, tearing truths, breaking parts
Should I be the one to cry, or just let the silence lie?
Self-defense, a fragile wall, against the thoughts that make me fall
Others' pain, their silent screams, reflect my fears, my broken dreams

[Pre-Chorus]
If guilt is heavy, sinking deep, I wonder if they hurt, or just weep
Can’t bear the blame, can’t face the shame, but still I ask, was it in vain?

[Chorus]
If someone falls because of me, I’d never want that to be
A reason, a truth, a silent cry, beneath a hollow sky
It's ridiculous, insane to think, who bears the burden, who sinks?
No, I don’t deserve that pain, I'll only bear my own disdain

[Bridge]
Is it fair to judge so harsh, when we’re lost in shadows, lost in scar?
We’re all struggling, trying to find, a little peace inside our mind
No one’s perfect, no one’s free, from hurts and misery
But every life is a fragile thread, let’s find a way, before it’s dead

[Outro]
So I’ll hold my own shame, and carry my own blame
Because the only one I can truly blame, is myself, and that’s a shame
