[Verse 1]
I want to fight, but I’m gone
Like a name carved into a headstone
I’m still breathing out of habit
Not because I want to hold on
My chest is quiet, too quiet
The storm inside is still
Because I already screamed it all
And no one listened still
I’m sorry I wasn’t stronger
That I broke without a sound
That I sank beneath the surface
While the world kept spinning round
[Chorus]
I’m still falling
Not metaphor—real
There’s nothing left in me
That I even want to feel
I’ve drowned a thousand times
In a silence sharp as knives
And now I know the truth—
I was never really alive
But maybe this song
This desperate cry from me
Could echo through the void
And pull someone else free
Even if it couldn’t save me…
Maybe it saves you
[Verse 2]
I whisper into darkness
But it never whispers back
And every time I try to speak
My voice just fades to black
There’s a weight inside my blood
And it’s pulling me below
No light, no god, no answers
Just the echo of “let go”
And I’ve worn this fake smile
Like a mask that wouldn’t crack
But now the pieces are falling
And there’s no putting them back
[Chorus]
Why am I still falling?
Like ashes in the rain
No one ever noticed
No one asked about the pain
I’ve drowned in empty rooms
Where my name was never said
I left a thousand clues
But they read silence instead
But maybe this song
This bleeding, broken plea
Will find a heart like mine
And keep it from the sea
Even if it couldn’t save me…
Maybe it saves you
[Bridge – Slow, Haunting]
If you’re standing at the edge
And no one knows you’re near
If you’re screaming in your head
But no one wants to hear
Please—
Don’t go where I did
Don’t let go like I did
There’s someone, somewhere
That needs your breath
Even if I couldn’t believe that for me
[Final Chorus – Whispered, Fractured]
We are all still falling, but for once
you’re not alone tonight
Even if it’s dark
Even if there’s no light
Let this be the voice
I never had for me
Let this be the line
That sets someone free
I couldn’t save myself…
But maybe it saves you
[Outro]
I want to fight
But I’m gone
Still…
This song lives on
