Walls and Shadows

Silent whispers echo in the dark

Looking at the stars longing in the heart

I don’t want to be saved, I'm just tired of being broken

Caught in a cycle, I'm toxic like a drug

Can you show me what’s not? Can you be real?

Or are you just a ghost, just another test for how I feel?

Lying or truth, I can’t tell the pain from the proof

Trust is a fortress I forgot how to climb

Patience is a lesson I’m still trying to find

Hurting inside, the scars I hide

Wish I could feel, wish I could heal

The urge is a flame, a dangerous game

My heart’s grown cold, walls grow tall, can you break through or will you fall?

I want to feel something real, beneath the layers of pain

Can you see me, or just the mask i portray ?

Standing at the edge, with blood on my hands

Will you catch me if I fall or will you run away?

Silence remains, I wait in vain

Hoping love will break these chains

Or will I forever drown in this silent reign?
