[Intro atmospheric / subtle]
(I’ve been in hell
I know what it’s like
And trust me now
don’t wanna go there twice)
Verse
I woke in a world that had no mercy, no light
Every street a grave, every shadow a knife
The walls whispered my failures, ate my screams
I walked on broken glass, chasing dead dreams
Pre-Chorus
I begged the void for mercy, it only stared
Felt my soul fracture, bleeding, unprepared
[Subtle echo behind lead vocals]
[Signals chorus is coming]
Chorus
I’ve been in hell and I know what it’s like
It takes your breath, then it takes your mind
It whispers lies while it eats you alive
Breaks you slow, then asks you to survive
I crawled out scarred, I still feel it inside
Trust me now — you don’t wanna go there twice
Verse
The nights were knives that cut through my chest
Every heartbeat a hammer, every breath a test
I spoke to ghosts who had no names
Their hands held fire, their eyes held flames
Pre-Chorus
Chains wrapped my mind, darkness gnawed my skin
I tore them apart, let the war rage within
[Subtle echo behind lead vocals]
[Signals chorus is coming]
Chorus
I’ve been in hell and I know what it’s like
It takes your breath, then it takes your mind
It whispers lies while it eats you alive
Breaks you slow, then asks you to survive
I crawled out scarred, I still feel it inside
Trust me now — you don’t wanna go there twice
Bridge
I am the shadow that stared death in the face
I am the silence that no one can erase
I am the broken who refused to fall
I’ve walked through fire, I’ve endured it all
[Subtle echo behind lead vocals]
[Signals chorus is coming]
Chorus
I’ve been in hell and I know what it’s like
It takes your breath, then it takes your mind
It whispers lies while it eats you alive
Breaks you slow, then asks you to survive
I crawled out scarred, I still feel it inside
Trust me now — you don’t wanna go there twice
I carry the fire, but I’ll never go back
[Outro fade cinematic]
I crawled out scarred,
I still feel it inside
So trust me now —
I don’t wanna go there twice
