[Intro]
Shadows creeping, soul bleeding low
Lost inside this endless undertow
[Verse 1]
Walls closing in, silence screams loud
Schoolyard ghosts haunt my cloudy shroud
Hoped for more but fell so short
Broken pieces, life's a cruel sport
[Pre-Chorus]
I scream in my mind, wishing I could rewind
Hold myself tighter, leave the pain behind
No dad around, just a mother so worn
Fighting through storms, feeling forlorn
[Chorus]
Sorry, younger me, I failed to break free
Trapped in darkness, longing to see
More than shadows, more than pain
Wishing I could heal the wounds and reign
[Bridge]
Blood on my hands, stains of regret
Trying to forget, never been set
But I rise from the ash, scream at the night
Hope's flicker fighting, holding on tight
[Outro]
In this void, I find my fight
Journey from darkness into light
Young self, you're not alone
Chains breaking, finally grown
