[Intro]
(Low, humming synth)
(Distant, echoing percussion)
[Verse 1]
Walking through the shadows, I don't see your eyes
Filtered out the static, cut through all the lies
You got a lot to say about the path I tread
But your opinions never put a penny in my bed
The weight of your judgment is a feather to a ghost
I’m the captain of the wreck, I’m the silence on the coast
So keep your whispers tucked away in the back of your mind
I’m the only architect of the life that I find.
[Chorus]
I don’t care what you think, I don’t care what you say
I’m living for the night, I’m burning through the day
The walls are closing in, but I’m built out of stone
Content to be a king on a broken-down throne
(Low bass rumble)
Yeah, leave me alone.
[Verse 2]
Static on the airwaves, noise inside the street
Everyone’s a critic when they’re tasting a defeat
You measure out my worth by a ruler that is bent
But I don't owe you nothing, every second is spent
Doing what I want, exactly how I feel
The coldness in my chest is the only thing that's real
So talk until your throat is dry and your spirit starts to thin
I never let the outside world crawl beneath my skin.
[Chorus]
I don’t care what you think, I don’t care what you say
I’m living for the night, I’m burning through the day
The walls are closing in, but I’m built out of stone
Content to be a king on a broken-down throne.
[Bridge]
(Ambient textures swelling)
(Distorted vocal echoes)
Let it rain... let it pour...
I don't hear you anymore.
The silence is a weapon.
The peace is mine to keep.
[Outro]
Live it how I see fit.
No apologies.
No regrets.
(Fade out with deep, atmospheric hum)
(Slow heartbeat rhythm)
