Breaking the Silence

Verse 1

I’m pacing in a room with the walls closing in

Every breath feels heavy, like I’m drowning within

Got a scream in my chest but it’s stuck in my throat

Every promise I made feels like one more joke

Pre-Chorus

I tried to play it cool, tried to hold the line

But I’m running out of reasons just to be fine

Chorus

I’m breaking the silence, tearing it wide

I’m done with the lies I keep locked inside

No more pretending I’m still in control

I’m fighting the dark before it swallows me whole

Verse 2

Voices in my head keep pulling me down

They’re wearing my face, they’re wearing my crown

I’m sick of the weight that I carry alone

Every step I take feels carved in stone

Pre-Chorus

I gave you my trust, I gave you my pain

Now I’m standing here soaked in the rain

Chorus

I’m breaking the silence, tearing it wide

I’m done with the lies I keep locked inside

No more pretending I’m still in control

I’m fighting the dark before it swallows me whole

Bridge (spoken / screamed style)

You don’t know

What it’s like

To wake up hating your own reflection

This is me

On the edge

Looking for a second direction

Breakdown

Pressure building — veins on fire

Every heartbeat feeds the wire

Push me closer, cross the line

I won’t fade, I won’t resign

Final Chorus

I’m breaking the silence, hear me tonight

I’m standing my ground in the middle of the fight

I won’t be another ghost in the fold

I’m taking my life back — mind and soul

Outro

This is the sound of me still alive

Still breathing, still trying to survive
