[Intro]
Yeah, thought I was alright, now I see the cracks beneath my skin
Silent battles, fights within, ain't nobody tell me where to begin
[Verse 1]
Walking through these shadows, heartbeat echo in my chest
Mirror shows a stranger, face haunted, filled with regret’s mess
Mama said stay strong, but I feel like I’m sinking
In these depths of my mind where the pain’s always ringing
Dark nights, no sleep, just thoughts in my head
Painted with sorrow, living with what I’ve said
Veins run cold, cold enough to freeze my tears
Loneliness whispers, confirming all my fears
Lost in the maze of my own design
Every step forward feels like a decline
Memories stabbing, cuts that won’t heal
Feelings bottled up, never dealt, never sealed
[Pre-Chorus]
Can’t escape these ghosts, they’re always beside me
Trying to find peace, but it’s so hard to see
Heavy is the crown that I carry alone
In this loneliness, I’ve grown, I’ve grown
[Chorus]
Sinking in my mind, drowning in the pain
Darkness surrounds, feels like I’m going insane
Inner demons dance, in the shadows they hide
Reflecting all the scars I’ve sworn to deny
Heavy heart, no escape from this fight
Living with regrets, fading into the night
Can’t find a way out, trapped in my despair
Just me and these demons, no one else who cares
[Bridge]
Silent screams in my sleep, they echo so loud
Searching for salvation, lost in the crowd
Barely holding on, fragile and worn
From all these battles, battered, torn
[Outro]
Maybe someday I’ll find the light I seek
Until then, I’m just lost in what I speak
This pain’s my story, my truth, my song
In these dark moments, trying to stay strong
