[Intro]
Darkened streets and hollow eyes, shadows tell my tale
Faded dreams and broken wings, riding this damned gale
[Verse 1]
Once I had a spark of hope, now just ashes in my breath
Walking through a land that’s cold, haunted by my regret
Smoking memories, chasing time, nights without the sun
Lost inside the silence, where the darkness has begun
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you feel the stigma? It’s not just in my head
A silent judgment lurking, whispering for me to stay dead
[Chorus]
Self-destruction’s a quiet storm, tearing through my soul
Criticizing life itself, trying to make me whole
But I’m still standing here, though I’m breaking apart
In the shadows of my mind, I forget how to start
[Verse 2]
Homeless years left scars invisible, yet they define my place
Now I got a roof above, but I’m still haunted by disgrace
The world’s cold gaze, the silent shame, I carry it inside
Trying to find a flicker of hope, some place I can hide
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you see the feeling? It’s the weight I always bear
A stigma hanging over, whispering that I don’t care
[Chorus]
Self-destruction’s a quiet storm, tearing through my soul
Criticizing life itself, trying to make me whole
But I’m still standing here, though I’m breaking apart
In the shadows of my mind, I forget how to start
[Bridge]
Days turn into nights, nights into endless despair
Seeking salvation, but it’s never really there
No steady tether, no guiding light to save
Just the echo of a life that I thought I’d brave
[Outro]
Now I realize the stigma’s just a ghost, a fear so deep
In this lonely apartment, I begin to seek my sleep
Though the scars remain, I’ll try to heal what’s torn
In the quiet aftermath, I find a place to mourn
