[Verse 1]
They talk in the cracks of the ceiling
In the hum of the late-night fan
Every shadow knows my secrets
Every mirror shows their hands
Daylight feels like borrowed armor
Nighttime strips it off my skin
I keep circling the same old corner
Where the voices drag me in
[Chorus]
I’m fighting my demons
Day and night
Let them out before they swallow my mind
If I keep them caged
I bleed from the strain
I lose myself in all this pain
I’m fighting my demons
Hear them scream
If I don’t release
They devour my dreams
Let them out
Let them out of my head
Or they’ll drag me down till I’m dead
[Verse 2]
They sit in the smoke of the city
In the blue glare off my phone
Every headline tastes like poison
Every heartbeat feels alone
I’m so tired of being their prison
Of pretending I’m okay
So I claw these walls wide open
Let them spill out from my veins
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
I won’t wear their chains like skin
I won’t call this weight “just life”
Every scar’s a loaded question
Every breath
A sharpened knife
[crescendo]
So I scream their names in the open (open!)
Let them echo
Let them burn
If the darkness leaves my body
Maybe light can have its turn
[Chorus]
[Intro]
Whispers in the shadows, calling out to me
A battle in my mind, a storm I can't unsee
[Verse 1]
Locked inside a chamber, haunted by the fear
Demons dancing freely, trying to draw me near
Each secret I confine, a weight I can't deny
But if I unleash them, how much more can I survive?
[Pre-Chorus]
Treading on a razor's edge, unsure of what I'll find
Lost between the darkness, searching for the light
[Chorus]
If I let my demons out, how far will I go?
Who's gonna get hurt, when the shadows start to grow?
Breaking through the silence, feeling them take control
Falling into darkness, risking losing my soul
[Bridge]
Swallowed whole by fears, can't tell what's real or fake
Walking line so thin, scared of what I might unleash
Can I find the courage, to face what's deep inside?
Or am I destined to lose, swallowed by the night?
[Outro]
Maybe there's no coming back, from this abyss I tread
A hollow, shattered mirror, reflecting what's unsaid
Demons in the dark, I fight to keep at bay
But when I open the door, will I ever find my way?
