[Intro]
Whispered shadows fall, heavy on my soul
Silent tears trace lines, stories left untold
[Verse 1]
In the quiet ache of night, I face my fears alone
A broken mirror's reflection, of a man I don’t own
Dreams fade into the dusk, hopes lost in the rain
Wishing I could be enough, but I still feel the pain
[Pre-Chorus]
Every effort, every try, feels like sinking sand
Bound by the weight of need, I can't understand
[Chorus]
Crushing weight of knowing, I’m falling short again
Holding onto fragments, of a love I can't defend
Terrified I’ll fail them, in the shadows of my mind
Inadequate and broken, leaving dreams behind
[Verse 2]
Failling to lift them higher, my hands tremble and shake
Silent screams inside me, for the hearts that I might break
Worried they’ll see through the scars, the cracks I try to hide
Fearing I’m the storm, they’ll get lost in the tides
[Pre-Chorus]
Every effort, every try, feels like sinking sand
Bound by the weight of need, I can't understand
[Chorus]
Crushing weight of knowing, I’m falling short again
Holding onto fragments, of a love I can't defend
Terrified I’ll fail them, in the shadows of my mind
Inadequate and broken, leaving dreams behind
[Bridge]
What if I’m not enough? What if they see through?
All my flaws and failures, the truth they never knew
This fear consumes me, a dark and endless night
Praying for salvation, for a spark of light
[Outro]
So I carry this burden, with every breath I take
Hoping one day, my wounds will finally break
Until then I am struggling, to hold on and be strong
In the silence of my doubts, I just try to hang on
