Shadows in My Mind

Yeah, it's a heavy weight, yeah, it's a silent cry

Hidden behind the smile, but still I wonder why

This mind's a maze, trapped in my own despair

Feeling all alone, even when people are there

Woke up in the dark, no sunlight in my mind

Battling these shadows, can't seem to leave them behind

Every thought's a storm, inside my head they collide

Trying to find some peace but there's nowhere to hide

Voices in my head whispering regrets

Echoes of mistakes I can't forget

Heart heavy, soul weary, lost in the pain

Walking through the rain, soaked in my own shame

Asked for help, but felt so misunderstood

Struggling in silence, wishing I could

Break these chains, find the strength inside

But I'm sinking fast with nowhere to hide

This depression got me drowning in my tears

Fighting all these battles, battling my fears

Searching for a light in the endless night

Praying for a dawn to make it right

Feeling broken, scattered, torn apart

Trying to heal my wounded heart

But the darkness lingers, won't let go

In this lonely fight, I just want to know

Mirror reflects a stranger I don't recognize

Lost in these feelings, trapped in disguise

Every day a struggle just to survive

Looking for a reason to stay alive

Friends try to reach but I push away

Fighting these demons each passing day

A hopeless hope, a fragile spark

Trying to find my way back from the dark

Every step I take feels like a mile

Living with this constant trial

But deep inside, I wanna be free

Breakthrough these chains, find the true me

This depression got me drowning in my tears

Fighting all these battles, battling my fears

Searching for a light in the endless night

Praying for a dawn to make it right

Feeling broken, scattered, torn apart

Trying to heal my wounded heart

But the darkness lingers, won't let go

In this lonely fight, I just want to know

Maybe someday, I'll find the cure

Heal these wounds, find the strength to endure

Hope's a whisper, faint but clear

A promise that one day, I'll disappear

Until then, I'll keep on fighting

Through the pain, keep igniting

A flicker of hope in my soul

Longing to be made whole

So here I stand, scars and all

Rising up, refusing to fall

This song’s my cry, my plea, my prayer

Hoping someday, someone will care
