Verse 1)
Another dawn, the same old ache, familiar chill I can't quite shake.
Whispers here, they know my name, stoking embers of a dying flame.
Said misery would always mold me, but comfort's worn, edges frayed.
Walls closing, no glimpse of light, voices drone a weary song, day and night.
Built this fortress, brick by brick, now freedom feels like a falling trick.
(Pre-Chorus)
Thought I had it all, within this wall.
Air grows thin, pressure mounts, this battle counts.
(Chorus)
Solitude's embrace, losing grace,
Hollow comfort, forgotten space.
Company I craved, now feels like chains,
Washing over with bitter rains.
Can I break free from what I've known?
Or am I destined to die alone?
Misery kept me warm,
Now it's the eye of my own storm.
(Verse 2)
World outside keeps turning, fire in my gut keeps burning.
To feel something new, break the mold, a story yet untold.
Faces passing, silent questions, beyond their sight, deeper lessons.
Solace in being down, a heavy crown.
Dark road walked, now long to go, where shadows cease, and peace can flow.
(Pre-Chorus)
Thought I had it all, within this wall.
Air grows thin, pressure mounts, this battle counts.
(Chorus)
Solitude's embrace, losing grace,
Hollow comfort, forgotten space.
Company I craved, now feels like chains,
Washing over with bitter rains.
Can I break free from what I've known?
Or am I destined to die alone?
Misery kept me warm,
Now it's the eye of my own storm.
(Bridge)
What if voices fade to silence?
Nothing left but defiance.
Choose the light, feel the sting,
Of hope that life can bring.
Terrifying, this unknown,
To face the future, truly grown.
(Outro)
My own storm... breaking...
Or mistaken?
Misery's grip... slipping...
Out of the dark... into the...
Unknown...
