[Verse 1]
I wear the silence like a chain,
Dragging echoes through my veins.
Every mirror shows a stranger,
Every breath just tastes of blame.
[Pre-Chorus]
Can’t you hear the fracture in my voice?
It’s the breaking I never had a choice…
[Chorus]
Shame — it’s burning through my skin,
Crawling underneath, I can’t keep it in.
Shame — it’s louder than my name,
Screaming in my head like I’m the one to blame.
SHAME!
[Verse 2]
I hide the scars beneath my sleeve,
Prayers that no one ever sees.
I’m suffocating in confession,
Chained inside this endless grief.
[Pre-Chorus]
Can’t you see the weight I try to hide?
It’s a war that’s tearing me inside…
[Chorus]
Shame — it’s burning through my skin,
Crawling underneath, I can’t keep it in.
Shame — it’s louder than my name,
Screaming in my head like I’m the one to blame.
SHAME!
[Bridge – screamed/harsh vocal part]
Tear it out!
Rip it out!
I don’t want this poison now!
Take it back!
Give me peace!
I just want to finally breathe!
[Final Chorus]
Shame — it’s burning through my skin,
Crawling underneath, I can’t keep it in.
Shame — it’s louder than my name,
Drowning out the light and leaving me in pain.
Shame.
[Outro (sang softer)]
