[Verse]
Quiet nights, empty room, echoes all around,
TV flickers, shadows dance on hollow ground.
Phone on silent, ain't no texts or missed calls,
Mirror shows a smile, behind masks, pitfalls.
[Chorus]
Fake it till I make it, wear the joy like armor,
Lonely heart's a drummer, silence growing calmer.
Laughter on the surface, tears beneath the skin,
Voices in my head, no one's listenin'.
[Verse 2]
Daylight creeps, sun it hides behind the grey,
Talk to strangers, small talk while I fade away.
Crowded streets, faceless names, no one knows the pain,
Glass of liquor, lose the numbing in the rain.
[Bridge]
Close the curtains, check the locks, solitary bind,
Fake smiles like a pro, keep the truth confined.
Music loud, drown out thoughts, heavy lies beneath,
Behind the laughter, loneliness, a hidden grief.
[Chorus]
Fake it till I make it, wear the joy like armor,
Lonely heart's a drummer, silence growing calmer.
Laughter on the surface, tears beneath the skin,
Voices in my head, no one's listenin'.
[Freestyle]
Sky's the limit yet I'm grounded, solo flights on mental planes,
Chasing dreams with nothing solid, echoes caught in endless chains.
Friends a distant memory, shadows in a crowded room,
Conversation's necessary, but deep down it's all just gloom.
