I wake up in a room full of echoes
Every thought’s a weight on my chest
Smiling like I’m fine in the daylight
But the night knows me best
I scroll through a thousand faces
Everyone looks so alive
I’m screaming inside but I whisper
“Yeah, I’m doing just fine”
There’s a war in my head I don’t talk about
I learned how to hide it well
But even the strongest armor
Still rings when it falls
I’m tired of fighting myself in the dark
Tired of stitching my broken parts
If you see me fading, please don’t look away
I’m not weak, I’m just in pain
I’m learning it’s okay to bend
Not every battle means you win
I’m still here, even when I’m a mess
Still breathing through the heaviness
Some days feel like I’m underwater
Every word comes out too slow
I replay all my old mistakes
Like a movie I can’t let go
They say “just think positive”
Like it’s a switch I can flip
But my mind’s a maze of mirrors
And I’m lost in it
I keep telling myself “hold on”
But my hands are shaking now
Still, a spark refuses to die
Somewhere deep down
I’m tired of fighting myself in the dark
Tired of stitching my broken parts
If you see me fading, please don’t look away
I’m not weak, I’m just in pain
I’m learning it’s okay to bend
Not every battle means you win
I’m still here, even when I’m a mess
Still breathing through the heaviness
Maybe healing isn’t fixing
Maybe it’s staying alive
Choosing tomorrow one more time
Even when it hurts inside
If I fall, I’ll fall forward
If I cry, I’ll let it show
I don’t need to be fearless
I just need to know
That I’m more than my darkest days
More than the words my mind keeps saying
If you’re breaking too, come sit with me
We don’t have to be okay to breathe
I’m still here, and that’s enough
Even when it all feels rough
I’m not lost, I’m just depressed
Still learning how to rest
So if you hear this song someday
And it sounds a bit like you
You’re not alone in the silence
I’m here too
