[Verse]
Staring at the ceiling, shadows twist and writhe,
Clock ticks slow, feels like a lifetime.
Voices in my head, they argue, they collide,
Battlefields of doubt, where hope can't survive.
Empty bottles by the bed, a graveyard of nights,
Thoughts creeping in, sharper than a knife.
Every breath a gamble, every step a fight,
Walking tightropes blindfolded in the blackest light.
[Chorus]
Shadows in my mind, they whisper, "Let it go,"
Falling through the cracks, drowning in the flow.
Shadows in my mind, screaming, "No control,"
Caught between the silence and the undertow.
[Verse 2]
Heartbeats uneven, rhythm of despair,
Chained to my own thoughts, gasping for air.
Anxiety’s a predator, I’m its constant prey,
Can't tell if it's night or just another gray day.
Tears dry quick, but the stains don’t fade,
Smiling in the mirror, but the soul’s decayed.
Haunted by a past I can't seem to outrun,
Futures feel distant, I'm afraid of the sun.
[Bridge]
Static in my brain, glitching every word,
Hope’s a foreign language I’ve never really heard.
Reaching for the light, but my arms feel tied,
Climbing up the walls, but they’re slick with pride.
