[Intro]
(Slow, haunting piano with echoing reverb
Layer in distorted guitar and distant heavy drums)
[Verse 1]
Shadows crawl across my mind
Silent screams I try to hide
Every step, a battlefield
Every thought, a deadly shield
Broken voices whisper lies
I can’t escape their watchful eyes
The night is thick, the air is cold
Another story left untold
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Push me down, I rise again
Blood and fire, ink and sin
Every scar a tale of pain
Etched in me, I’ll remain
[Chorus 1]
This is my war
Darkness inside, I can’t ignore
No peace, no fucking calm
Just echoes of the deadly storm
This is my war
Every step I take leaves me sore
Screaming loud but no one sees
Fighting ghosts that never leave
[Verse 2]
The piano moans like a dying soul
Each note a crack in my control
Metal shakes, the floorboards groan
I walk this path, I walk alone
Eyes in the shadows, they never blink
Pushing me closer to the edge of the brink
Cold sweat drips, heartbeats pound
The silence screams without a sound
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Chains of fear, I pull them tight
Waging battles through endless night
Every wound I carry deep
Haunted by the things I keep
[Chorus 2]
This is my war
Darkness inside, I can’t ignore
No peace, no fucking calm
Just echoes of the deadly storm
This is my war
Every step I take leaves me sore
Screaming loud but no one sees
Fighting ghosts that never leave
[Bridge]
Piano wails under shattered skies
Ashes fall as hope dies
Fists of steel, mind of stone
In this war, I fight alone
[Breakdown]
War inside, it never sleeps
Beneath my skin, it cuts so deep
Darkness laughs, I can’t retreat
Every heartbeat feels like defeat
[Guitar Solo + Piano Interlude]
(Heavy, melodic, chaotic guitar solo intertwined with haunting piano, Build tension, then release into final chorus)
[Chorus 3 / Final Chorus]
This is my war
Darkness inside, I can’t ignore
No peace, no fucking calm
Just echoes of the deadly storm
This is my war
Every step I take leaves me sore
Screaming loud but no one sees
Fighting ghosts that never leave
[Outro]
Piano fades into distant echoes
Guitars sustain into darkness
Silence falls, the war remains
A shadowed crown, a soul in chains
AshesofEden
