Shadows Beneath My Skin

[Verse]
Bones ache whispers under my flesh
Every step heavy like dragging regret
Sky's grey light won't touch me here
Breathing shallow drowning in the clear
[Prechorus]
Is it a curse or a fight
A shadow chasing the light
[Chorus]
I’m alive but it burns
Shadows beneath my skin twist and turn
Every scream every sigh
Just trying to survive
[Verse 2]
Clock hands mock the hours I lose
Bed a prison soft with no use
Dreams like glass they cut they shatter
What’s real what’s pain does it even matter
[Prechorus]
Is it the dark or the day
That steals my strength away
[Chorus]
I’m alive but it burns
Shadows beneath my skin twist and turn
Every scream every sigh
Just trying to survive
