Fault Lines in My Head

[Verse 1]
You were pouring coffee
My hands were shaking glass
You said
"You look right through me"
I was staring at the past
Every room kept tilting
Pictures sliding off the wall
You reached out to hold me
I just watched us fall
[Chorus]
I love you
But my mind is lying
Turns your face into a storm I’m fighting
Every hug feels like a threat inside my chest
I love you
But the fault lines open
Words you say get twisted
Broken
Got a war in me that makes you look like the enemy
And that’s killing me
[Verse 2]
You were on the doorstep
Keys still in your hand
Asking simple questions
Like I’m some different man
Paranoid and pacing
Counting every little word
You said
"I’m on your side"
That just sounded like a curse
[Chorus]
I love you
But my mind is lying
Turns your face into a storm I’m fighting
Every hug feels like a threat inside my chest
I love you
But the fault lines open
Words you say get twisted
Broken
Got a war in me that makes you look like the enemy
And that’s killing me
[Bridge]
I’m not angry at you
I’m trapped in this room
Echoes getting louder
Calling you the doom
If I push you away
It’s ‘cause I’m scared to stay
Don’t believe the shadows in my head
Believe me when I say
[Chorus]
I love you
But my mind is lying
Turns your face into a storm I’m fighting
Every hug feels like a threat inside my chest
I love you
But the fault lines open
Words you say get twisted
Broken
Got a war in me that makes you look like the enemy
But you’re all I need
Yeah
You’re all I need

rock, Gritty modern rock, male vocals, tense palm-muted guitars in the verses that burst into wide, overdriven power chords for the chorus; tight, punchy drums with crunchy snare, bass glued to the kick. Verses stay close and confessional, chorus climbs into soaring, shout-along hooks with stacked harmonies. Bridge strips to voice and guitar before a final, explosive chorus and a raw, ring-out ending.
