[Intro – whispered + static]
A switch… a blade…
Tell me you feel the same.
Tell me it hurts like this inside your veins.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Verse 1 – soft, hollow emo-trap tone]
I’m always so alone,
Even when I’m drowning
In people that I know —
The silence still surrounds me.
I watch them live their perfect little lives,
While I unravel in my mind.
Losing friends, starting fires,
You call it lies — I call it survival.
I sit at home, afraid to speak,
Scrolling through the ghosts I keep.
Victim of a generation
Built on fear and expectations.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Pre-Chorus – emotional build]
Who am I supposed to be?
When will I feel complete?
Why can’t I make them proud of me?
Why does the mirror never believe?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Chorus – heavy guitars + trap drums hit]
Slit my wrists, bloody fists,
Questioning why I exist.
Pain persists — these evil gifts
Turn my whole life into this abyss.
Is it killing you
Like it’s killing me?
Is it killing you…
‘Cause it’s killing me.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Verse 2 – industrial metal delivery, tense]
A switch, a blade,
Numb to the pain —
We break the same.
A cross of shame,
Suffer the weight,
Both strung out to ache.
The fever breaks —
Spit out the rage,
We grieve the same.
No quarter, no shade,
Just blood in your teeth
And the memories you never keep.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Pre-Chorus 2 – broken, breathless]
I try to stay strong but I fracture again,
Everything I touch caves in.
Maybe pain’s the point of growing —
But why am I the only one drowning?
Clinging to hope
With shaking bones,
Got nowhere to go…
But I still want you to know:
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Chorus – bigger, louder, layered vocals]
Slit my wrists, bloody fists,
Questioning why I exist.
Pain persists — these evil gifts
Drag me deeper where the dark insists.
Is it killing you
Like it’s killing me?
Is it killing you…
‘Cause it’s killing me.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Bridge – atmospheric, soft, hopeful]
And if you make it out…
Show me a way.
I just can’t stop now…
Show me a way.
If you’re still breathing…
Then maybe I can be, too.
Someone out there needs you —
And maybe someone needs me, too.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Final Chorus – explosive, cinematic]
Slit my wrists, bloody fists,
Screaming at the life I missed.
Pain persists — but through the mist
I hear a voice say, “You can live through this.”
Is it killing you
Like it’s killing me?
If you make it out…
Please come back for me.
