Verse 1

I don't recognize the face staring back at me,

Dark circles and memories that never let me sleep.

The mirror tells a story that I wish wasn't true,

About a broken man I became after you.

Now every crowded room still feels empty somehow,

I fake another smile but I'm exhausted now.

My friends say I'm different, I tell them I'm okay,

But the truth gets harder to hide every day.

I keep all my feelings locked behind these walls,

Watching pieces of myself continue to fall.

I used to have a fire, I used to have a spark,

Now I'm just another shadow wandering through the dark.

Pre-Chorus

And every night I swear that I'll be alright,

But the silence gets louder when I turn out the lights.

I keep reaching for peace but it slips through my hands,

Like water through fingers I don't understand.

Chorus

What happened to the person I used to be?

The one who still believed tomorrow held something for me.

Now I'm stuck between healing and letting go,

Lost in the wreckage of a life I don't know.

Every road I take just leads me back again,

To the ghosts, the regrets, and the could-have-beens.

Tell me, when does the hurting finally end?

'Cause I've been fighting this battle and I don't think I can win.

Verse 2

I carry these memories like stones in my chest,

Trying to move forward but they won't let me rest.

The weight keeps getting heavier with every passing year,

And the things I tried to bury always reappear.

I keep hearing your name in the back of my mind,

Like a wound that keeps opening no matter the time.

Everybody says healing comes eventually,

But right now that feels like a lie they tell me.
