What if

Intro (distorted riff, slow chug)

Cold eyes stare from the other side,

Don’t know the man behind the lie…

⸻

Verse 1

I sold my name for another disguise,

Buried the truth under layers of pride.

I’ve been the poison, I’ve been the knife,

I tore it all down and called it life.

Every step just digs in deep,

Can’t wake up — can’t even sleep.

⸻

Pre-Chorus

I hear the silence scream,

Is this some kind of dream?

Or just who I’ve become?

Tell me — what have I done?

⸻

Chorus

I see a face I don’t recognize,

Dead inside the mirror, behind these eyes.

No light, no grace, no alibi —

Just a hollow shell I can’t deny.

I don’t feel, I don’t cry…

I just watch it all die.

⸻

Verse 2

I used to pray with blood on my hands,

Now I kneel just to feel the sand.

Slipped through time like it meant nothin’,

Truth hit hard, but I kept runnin’.

I said the words, I played the part,

But I was dead straight from the start.

⸻

Pre-Chorus

Now there’s no one left to blame,

Just a shadow and a name.

Tell me, what does it mean…

If I killed everything?

⸻

Chorus

I see a face I don’t recognize,

Dead inside the mirror, behind these eyes.

No light, no grace, no alibi —

Just a hollow shell I can’t deny.

I don’t feel, I don’t cry…

I just watch it all die.

⸻

Bridge (half-time, heavy and slow)

Burned the bridge, broke the vow,

No one left to save me now.

No redemption, no reprieve…

Only the weight of what I believe.

⸻

Final Chorus (vocals strained, near breaking point)

I see a face I don’t recognize,

Dead inside the mirror, behind these eyes.

I built this cage, I sealed my fate —

Now I rot in the mess I made.

I don’t beg, I don’t try…

I just watch it all die.

⸻

Outro (whispered, fading out)

Just watch it all die…

Watch it all die…
