[Verse 1 – spoken/rap, tense rhythm]
These walls are closing in, I can’t escape,
The weight of every word I hate.
Shadows whisper, pulling me down,
I scream for help but there’s no sound.
[Pre-Chorus – melodic tension]
Every cut, every scar,
Every voice inside goes too far.
I can’t control what’s in my head,
I’m alive, but I feel dead.
[Chorus – soaring, melodic but heavy]
Buried alive in silence,
Drowning beneath the violence.
Can you hear me breaking?
My soul is shaking.
Buried alive in silence,
I can’t fight this reliance.
If I fade away tonight,
Would you even see the light?
[Verse 2 – rap/scream combo, Slipknot-style intensity]
I claw through the static, tearing my skin,
The chaos is loud, but it’s quiet within.
A parasite thought, it devours my name,
I’m burning alive in my own shame.
[Pre-Chorus – building pressure]
Every cut, every scar,
Every voice inside goes too far.
I can’t control what’s in my head,
I’m alive, but I feel dead.
[Chorus – heavier with layered screams]
Buried alive in silence,
Drowning beneath the violence.
Can you hear me breaking?
My soul is shaking.
Buried alive in silence,
I can’t fight this reliance.
If I fade away tonight,
Would you even see the light?
[Bridge / Breakdown – screamed]
Let me bleed!
Tear my skin apart!
Feed the pain!
Rip out my heart!
I’m not your slave, I won’t obey,
I’ll burn this cage and walk away!
[Final Chorus – clean + screams blended]
Buried alive in silence,
Drowning beneath the violence.
Can you hear me breaking?
My soul is shaking.
Buried alive in silence,
I won’t die with defiance.
If I fade away tonight,
I’ll ignite— I’ll take back my life.
