FAILURE

Cold eyes in the mirror, I don’t recognize

Every breath I take just feeds another lie

I'm haunted by the silence, deafened by the truth

The person I remember never made it through

I can’t rewind, I can’t erase

The broken lines I can’t replace

I scream but nothing pulls me out

I fade without a sound

I am failure—falling deeper every day

Like a shadow I can't chase, I waste away

No savior—just the echo of regret

I wear the chains I forged, and I’m not free yet

I gave too much, and still I bled

Built a kingdom in my head

But every wall comes crashing down

No one's left to hear me drown

The flame is gone, the sky is grey

There’s nothing left to numb the pain

I reach but there’s no hand to find

Just ghosts I leave behind

I am failure—falling deeper every day

Like a shadow I can't chase, I waste away

No savior—just the echo of regret

I wear the chains I forged, and I’m not free yet

(Screamed)

I break the mirror, but I see the same

A hollow name, a soul to blame

Drag me down beneath the tide

I’m still alive… but dead inside

I am failure—nothing left to rise again

Just a war beneath my skin I’ll never win

No savior—only silence when I pray

I wear the scars like armor every day

(Soft vocals with echoes)

I fade into the gray...

A voice that slips away...

No one left to hear me say...

I was never okay.
