Bliss in the Shadows (Solo)

In the shadows where dreams fade away,

Chasing highs that never stay,

Lost in the night, drowning in the gray,

This is my fight, hear what I say.

Pills on the counter, a ticking time bomb,

Empty bottles, my heart"s gone numb,

Voices callin", like a deafening drum,

In the alley of pain, where nightmares hum.

Broken mirrors reflecting my soul,

Life"s a symphony of chaos, out of control,

Cops on the corner, they patrol my descent,

Fentanyl whispers, it’s too late to repent.

Every stab of the needle, I feel the release,

A moment of silence, a fleeting peace,

But the darkness returns, drowning me again,

Caught in a cycle, when will this end?

I’m lost in the void, feelin’ trapped in a cage,

Where the bliss of the needle writes each twisted page,

Pain’s a companion, and violence my friend,

In a world without hope, I just can’t pretend.

Scars on my arms tell the stories of fate,

Every hit’s a gamble, I can’t hesitate,

Screams in the distance, they’re closing in tight,

But I keep my eyes shut, avoiding the light.

Each sip of the bottle, a promise made clear,

A moment of comfort, drowning in fear,

Lies on my lips, like smoke in the air,

I"ve lost my way, do I even care?

But every stab of the needle, it cuts like a knife,

A cruel kind of pleasure that shatters my life,

Still I chase the dragon, while demons conspire,

Each fleeting touch, igniting the fire.

I’m lost in the void, feelin’ trapped in a cage,

Where the bliss of the needle writes each twisted page,

Pain’s a companion, and violence my friend,

In a world without hope, I just can’t pretend.

But the walls are closing in, echoes of despair,

Nightmares revisitin’, they lay me bare,

With nobody to save me, just this dread I’m in,

In the alley of shadows, where the fight begins.

So I sink back down, to the depths of my soul,

Where addiction’s a game, and I’ve lost all control,

But find me in the silence, hear the whispers of pain,

In this hell that I call home, I’ll dance in the rain.
