[Intro]
i never made it out…
[Verse]
damaged goods… if only they knew
how i scrubbed my body raw to be rid of you
feeling your hands invade my skin
the utter betrayal as you forced your way in
the shatter of trust, it haunts me inside
i’m still breathing but i’m not alive
i kept my pulse but lost my spark
how do you survive when the world goes dark?
[Pre Chorus]
my hands, they tremble
my chest starts to shake
as memories come rolling in
my mind grows louder
as the fear suffocates
my breathing starts to thin
i don’t recognize this shell of who i once was
[Chorus]
i’m alive but i don’t feel like i’m living
life keeps taking, and i keep giving
you moved on but i’m still stuck here
with whoever survived that night
the shadows follow me through each day
i can’t escape the price you made me pay
[Verse]
i fought like hell to get back what you stole
didn’t realize you butchered my soul
“forgive and forget,” that’s what they all say
they can’t see the scars you left behind
so i gave up what little remained
of who i was — i couldn’t carry the shame
my body a shell, my mind drained
haunted by tragedy i couldn’t explain
[Chorus]
i’m alive but i don’t feel like i’m living
life keeps taking, and i keep giving
you moved on but i’m still stuck here
with whoever survived that night
the shadows follow me through every day
i can’t escape the price you made me pay
[Bridge]
the mirror shows a stranger’s face
i reach for me, but find empty space
my pulse runs cold, my soul confined
lost in the fragments of my mind
[Final Chorus]
i’m alive but i don’t feel like i’m living
life keeps taking, and i keep giving
you moved on but i’m still stuck here
with whoever survived that night
the shadows follow me through every day
i can’t escape the price you made me pay
[Outro]
i never made it out
i never made it out
i never made it out… of there
