Fighting My Reflection

(Yeah… yeah…)

I been runnin’ from the shadow in my mind,

Every night it’s pullin’ me back in time.

Can’t lie, I’m scared of what I’ll find,

Lookin’ in the mirror at a ghost in my eyes.

⸻

I been walkin’ through the fire, no shoes, just pain,

Every memory burns, every thought’s insane.

Try to tell myself I’ll never be the same,

But the scars on my soul keep whisperin’ my name.

Demons in my head talk louder than the crowd,

Try to scream back, but they drown me out.

Every heartbeat feels like a countdown, now,

And I don’t even know if I’ll make it out.

⸻

[Chorus] (melodic, haunting)

I’m fightin’ my reflection, can’t escape this place,

Trapped inside a war I can’t erase.

Every tear I’ve bled is another mistake,

But I’ll keep swingin’ ‘til my bones all break.

⸻

Every night’s a battle, every day’s the same,

I been prayin’ for the light but it never came.

Got a pocket full of pain, I don’t need no fame,

I just wanna feel alive, not numb, not drained.

I been facin’ my fears, but they multiply,

And the weight on my chest always makes me lie.

Say I’m fine when I’m breakin’ inside,

But I swear to the grave I’m still gonna try.

⸻

[Bridge] (intense, faster flow)

Yeah, I’m runnin’ through the darkness, can’t slow down,

Mind’s a battleground, but I won’t bow down.

Takin’ every hit ‘til the lights go out,

I’m a lost soul fightin’ in the here and now.

⸻

I’m fightin’ my reflection, can’t escape this place,

Trapped inside a war I can’t erase.

Every tear I’ve bled is another mistake,

But I’ll keep swingin’ ‘til my bones all break.

⸻

(Yeah…)

Still runnin’ from the shadow in my mind,

But I’ll fight ‘til the day I flatline.

Even if I’m gone, I’ll leave behind,

Every battle I fought in the war of my life.
