[Intro]
(Soft piano chords)
I smiled through the silence,
Laughed while I shattered inside.
Everyone sees the surface,
No one sees where I hide...
Ohhhhh... ohhh... ohhhh...
[Verse 1]
Woke up with tears on my pillow,
Heart heavy like midnight rain.
Tried to stand tall like a willow,
But I’m crumbling under the strain.
They say, “Be strong,” like it’s easy,
Like I haven’t tried every day.
But strength doesn’t come when you're empty,
And hope just slips away...
Ohhh—ohhhhhhh...
[Chorus]
I’m breaking, can’t hold this anymore,
Every crack shows what I’ve been fighting for.
I’m screaming, but it’s all in my mind,
Falling in pieces no one can find.
I’m breaking, breaking slow...
Ohhhh... ohhhhhh...
And nobody knows.
[Verse 2]
Smiles feel heavy, like masks I wear,
Every word I say feels hollow air.
They talk, I nod, like I’m still here,
But inside I’m fading, unclear.
The mirror just stares, like it’s tired of me,
Reflecting someone I don’t want to be...
Ohhhhhh... ohhh... ohhhhhh...
[Chorus]
I’m breaking, can’t hold this anymore,
Every crack shows what I’ve been fighting for.
I’m screaming, but it’s all in my mind,
Falling in pieces no one can find.
I’m breaking, breaking slow...
Ohhhhhh, ohhhhhhh...
And nobody knows.
[Bridge]
If I vanished, would they see?
Or would silence just swallow me?
I’m still here, barely breathing light,
Trying to make it through one more night...
Ohhh, ohhh-ohhh...
[Final Chorus]
I’m breaking, the light's slipping through,
Don’t know what else I can do.
Still screaming, but locked in my chest,
Trying my best while I’m making a mess.
I’m breaking, breaking slow...
Ohhhh, ohhhh... ohhhhhh...
And nobody knows...
[Outro] (whispered with faint echo)
Still here... still breaking...
Ohhhhhh...
But maybe, still hoping.
Dayzzz
