[Intro – eerie piano loop, distant whispers]
(Whispers)
You hear that?
They’re back again…
⸻
[Verse 1 – slow, uneasy delivery]
Eyes wide open, but I can’t wake up,
Thoughts like knives and a half-drained cup.
They crawl through cracks in the ceiling tiles,
Smile in the mirror, but it ain’t my smile.
They say, “Do it. Just give in.”
I say, “No,” but they grin again.
Tied to a voice with a serpent tongue,
Telling me things I ain’t never done.
Lights flicker in a quiet room,
Heartbeat hummin’ like a funeral tune.
I walk the line, but it bends and shakes,
Every breath I take feels more like fake.
⸻
[Chorus – distorted vocal effect / haunting melody]
They whisper from the walls, they scream behind my eyes,
Tellin’ me to fall, feedin’ me their lies.
“Go ahead, make the move, it’s time you obey…”
But I fight them every second, every breath, every day.
The voices crawl, they echo deep and low,
But I ain’t lettin’ go — no, I won’t let ’em show.
Even in the dark, even when I stall,
I won’t become the whispers in the walls.
⸻
[Verse 2 – faster flow, building tension]
Yeah, I keep a smile like a mask on my face,
But behind it’s a war I can barely erase.
Shadows dance when the lights go dim,
They chant like a choir, wearing all my sins.
“You’re weak. You’re done. They don’t care at all.”
Voices in my head tryna see me crawl.
But I grit my teeth and I clench my jaw,
‘Cause I’m not gonna fall, nah — not at all.
They say “burn it down,” I say “not today.”
They beg and they pull but I walk away.
I ain’t a puppet, I ain’t your prey,
I’m alive, I’m here, and I’ll find my way.
⸻
[Chorus – repeat, more intense with layered vocals]
They whisper from the walls, they scream behind my eyes,
Tellin’ me to fall, feedin’ me their lies.
“Go ahead, make the move, it’s time you obey…”
But I fight them every second, every breath, every day.
The voices crawl, they echo deep and low,
But I ain’t lettin’ go — no, I won’t let ’em show.
Even in the dark, even when I stall,
I won’t become the whispers in the walls.
⸻
[Bridge – glitchy beat, broken whispers]
(whispers overlapping)
“No one will know.”
“Just one more step.”
“They forgot you.”
“It’s better this way.”
[Spoken word – over silence]
I am not your host.
I am not your echo.
I’m the silence…
And I choose no.
⸻
[Final Chorus – stripped back, then exploding full force]
They whisper from the walls, but I won’t let ’em win,
Even if they scratch and tear from within.
I’m still breathing — they hate that most of all…
‘Cause I refuse to be the whisper in the wall.
⸻
[Outro – heartbeat fading, single piano note]
(faint whisper)
I’m still here…
