Fractured Halo by JohnnyOstrum - Zona

Lyrics

[Intro — CLEAN / ATMOSPHERIC]

(soft synth, distant guitar swells)

I don’t recognize myself anymore.

⸻

[Verse 1 — CLEAN / HOLLOW]

I’ve been staring at the same four walls

Trying to remember who I was

My reflection feels like someone else

With my eyes but a different hell

I tried to be holy, I tried to be strong

But the weight of it all just proved me wrong

I wore their sins like a second skin

Now I don’t know where I end or where they begin

⸻

[Pre-Chorus — RISING EMOTION]

Every prayer feels counterfeit

Every promise I made—an empty threat

I wanted to save everyone but me

Now I’m drowning in the wreckage I couldn’t see

⸻

[Chorus — HUGE / CLEAN + SCREAM LAYER]

My halo’s cracked, my wings are gone

I tried to be light in a world so wrong

I held the sky on my fragile spine

Now I’m buried in the fault of mine

My halo’s fractured, my soul is scarred

I chased salvation into the dark

I tried to be everything I’m not

Now I’m standing alone in the aftermath

⸻

[Verse 2 — HEAVIER / EMOTIONAL]

I keep apologizing to the past

Like maybe that will make it last

I replay the words, I replay the nights

Every wrong turn, every warning sign

I wanted to matter, I wanted to heal

But I bled myself dry to make it real

Now the silence is louder than screams

And I don’t know what I’m supposed to be

⸻

[Pre-Chorus 2 — GROWL UNDER CLEAN]

I lost myself in the war to belong

Now I’m just the echo of what went wrong

⸻

[Chorus — EXPANDED]

My halo’s cracked, my wings are gone

I tried to be light in a world so wrong

I held the sky on my fragile spine

Now I’m buried in the fault of mine

My halo’s fractured, my soul is scarred

I chased salvation into the dark

I tried to be everything I’m not

Now I’m standing alone in the aftermath

⸻

[Bridge — SOFT → RISE]

Maybe I was never meant to carry the world

Maybe I was only meant to survive it

⸻

[Final Chorus — MASSIVE]

My halo’s cracked, my wings are gone

I tried to be light in a world so wrong

I held the sky on my fragile spine

Now I’m buried in the fault of mine

My halo’s fractured, my soul is scarred

I chased salvation into the dark

I tried to be everything I’m not

Now I’m standing alone in the aftermath

⸻

[Outro — WHISPER]

I don’t know who I am…

But I know I’m still here.
