[Intro]
Caught in the shadows, tangled in the night,
Living for a heartbeat, a flicker of light.
It's a cycle we're spinning, so hard to escape,
Chained to the darkness, afraid of my fate.
[Verse 1]
Whispers like thunder, they echo in my soul,
Every word a weapon, it's taken its toll.
I learned to dance in chaos, wear fear like a crown,
Caught in the madness, drowning in the sound.
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought I was strong, thought I could withstand,
But love turned to shackles held tight in her hand.
When the sun fades away, and the world feels so cold,
I reach for the comfort in stories untold.
[Chorus]
It's a hunger that won't die, lost in the lies,
Craving the pain like a drug in disguise.
Chained to the cycle that pulls me apart,
Searching for freedom, but I can't break my heart.
[Bridge]
Rising from ashes, I’m learning anew,
Reclaiming my power, I'm breaking through.
Each step is a battle, making peace with the past,
Finding the strength that I thought would not last.
[Verse 2]
Stories of silence, they linger and bleed,
Haunted by shadows of every dark deed.
But hope's in the whispers, it's calling my name,
I’ll rise from the embers, it won't be the same.
[Pre-Chorus]
Used to chase the chaos, lost in the thrill,
Defined by the darkness, now I’m learning still.
And with every heartbeat, I’m taking it back,
The love that was twisted, I’m learning to lack.
[Chorus]
It's a hunger that won't die, lost in the lies,
Craving the pain like a drug in disguise.
Chained to the cycle that pulls me apart,
Searching for freedom, but I can't break my heart.
[Outro]
So here I am rising, no longer the prey,
Each bruise tells a story of a brighter day.
I’m shedding the darkness, embracing the light,
For I am not broken; I’m ready to fight.
