Fading Pieces

Hey now, don’t judge me if you don’t know my story

These battles inside, they’re unspoken, they’re gory

Wake up in the mirror, I don’t see who I used to be

Fading like a ghost, just tryin’ to find me

Used to wake up feelin’ light, my smile was wide

Now these shadows creep, got me losin’ my pride

Memories of laughter, they’re slipping through my hands

Struggling to stand, I don’t understand

There’s voices in my head, tellin’ me I’m not enough

Tryin’ to break free, but the chains are tough

Holdin’ on to hope, don’t wanna fall apart

Fightin’ inside, with a wounded heart

If you don’t know me, don’t judge me

I’m just a soul tryin’ to be strong

The good pieces scrappin’ to stay alive

Struggling to find where I belong

Won’t pretend to be what I ain’t

Just a lost boy, tryin’ to hide my pain

Every step, I keep on tryin’ to grow

Hoping one day, I’ll find my way home

Memories of better days, they call my name

Feel the fire burnin’ low, in this dark rain

Want to be the man I know I can become

But the mirror’s reflection, got me feelin’ numb

Voices in my mind, they say I’m not enough

Battlin’ my demons, gotta rise above

Every scar tells a story, every tear’s a fight

Looking for the dawn, in the dead of night

If you don’t know me, don’t judge me

I’m just a soul tryin’ to be strong

The good pieces scrappin’ to stay alive

Struggling to find where I belong

Won’t pretend to be what I ain’t

Just a lost boy, tryin’ to hide my pain

Every step, I keep on tryin’ to grow

Hoping one day, I’ll find my way home

Maybe someday, I’ll find some peace

Let the past go, and just release

Until then, I’ll keep on fightin’ inside

Chasin’ the dream I can’t seem to hide

So if you see me, walkin’ down this road

Know I’m fightin’ every load

Just a man, tryin’ to find his soul

Won’t judge me now, I’m workin’ on me whole
