Shadows of my Mind

Empty bottles on the floor, demons creeping in my sleep

Razor whispers on my skin, promises I couldn’t keep

Dark thoughts in the mirror, staring back with hollow eyes

Skeletons in my closet screaming out their alibis

Chains on my soul, can't break the hold

Heart made of ice, my story untold

Running from shadows, a world so cold

Dreams turn to ashes, I fold, I fold

Pills spill like secrets, numb the pain in my chest

Nightmares got me hostage, can’t escape, no rest

Tattooed scars on my arms, each line a hidden cry

Living in a movie where the hero always dies

Bass hits harder than my guilt in the night

Trap doors in my mind, no escape in sight

Syringes full of sorrow, veins painted in despair

Prayers bounce off the ceiling, no one’s really there

Chains on my soul, can't break the hold

Heart made of ice, my story untold

Running from shadows, a world so cold

Dreams turn to ashes, I fold, I fold

Curtains closing slowly, hear the violins moan

Lost in a labyrinth, no path to call my own

Hope’s a fading echo, drowning in the reverb

Words caught in my throat, silence is my curse
