Fractured silence

**[Verse 1]**

The walls are closing in, I can’t breathe

Shadows stretch long where light used to be

Every heartbeat drags me down

In the quiet, I can hear the sound

**[Pre-Chorus]**

I’m lost inside myself,

A ghost in my own skin

The echoes of your voice

Are tearing me again

**[Chorus]**

Falling through fractured silence

I reach, but you’re not there

Drowning in the violence

Of memories I can’t repair

I scream into the void

But the void just stares

**[Verse 2]**

Rust upon my fingertips

Cold concrete beneath my skin

Every step feels heavier

The air is thick with what’s been

**[Bridge – atmospheric/djent breakdown]**

(Instrumental: haunting clean guitar layered with chugging low riffs, swelling synth pads)

I’m breaking… under weight of all I’ve lost

Hands stretched… grasping nothing but frost

**[Chorus]**

Falling through fractured silence

I reach, but you’re not there

Drowning in the violence

Of memories I can’t repair

I scream into the void

But the void just stares

**[Outro – ambient fade]**

Whispers in the dark

Calling me apart

I disappear…

And no one knows
