(Intro – whispered)
Can’t breathe... can’t sleep...
It’s crawling underneath...
(Verse 1)
Something’s growing in my head
Like rot beneath my skin
Voices laughing in the static
Tearing me from within
Cracked mirrors on the floor
I don’t know who I am anymore
It’s like I’m watching myself decay
And I like it...
Yeah, I like it that way
(Pre-Chorus – staccato rhythm)
Push me, break me, twist me slow
You don’t know what’s below
(Chorus)
I feel the filth inside
Clawing, screaming—can’t hide
You made this mess, now choke on it
I wear the pain, yeah, I own this shit
(Verse 2)
Nails dig deep, can't scratch it out
Paranoia in my mouth
Dripping venom down my spine
And it feels so f***ing fine
You say I need help?
Then why do I feel more alive
When I’m falling apart
With a smile in my eyes?
(Pre-Chorus)
Laugh with me in the dark
We’ll tear this world apart
(Chorus)
I feel the filth inside
Clawing, screaming—can’t hide
You made this mess, now choke on it
I wear the pain, yeah, I own this shit
(Bridge – spoken, disturbed tone)
It’s not my fault...
It’s not my fault...
IT’S NOT MY FAULT—
(But I wanted it...)
(Breakdown – full chaos)
Let it in!
LET IT IN!
Let the sickness wear my skin!
I won’t run, I won’t pretend—
I’m the start, and I’m the end
(Final Chorus – screamed)
I AM the filth inside
Born of rage and cyanide
You built this cage—now I hold the key
No more chains, I set ME free
(Outro – whispered over fading distortion)
Can’t breathe... can’t sleep...
But now... I see...
