Between Fear and Falling

[Verse 1]
Hands shake
Jaw tight, bite back the quake
Every shadow on the wall
Spells my name like a threat I can't break
Scroll past
Bad news, new scars, same cast
Smile cracked in the glass
Ask myself, "How long can this last?"
[Chorus]
I'm stuck between fear and falling
Too numb to run, too tired for crawling
Heart like a siren, always warning
But I keep walking through the storm, yeah
All this pain that I've been hauling
Feels like I'm here and still dissolving
I'm stuck between fear and falling
Somewhere between the night and morning
[Verse 2]
Cold sweat
Sheets twist, mind won't forget
Every secret that I hide
Comes alive when the sun starts to set
Bite tongue
Swallow every word, stay young
But the silence weighs a ton
And it crushes every song I haven't sung
[Chorus]
I'm stuck between fear and falling
Too numb to run, too tired for crawling
Heart like a siren, always warning
But I keep walking through the storm, yeah
All this pain that I've been hauling
Feels like I'm here and still dissolving
I'm stuck between fear and falling
Somewhere between the night and morning
[Bridge]
[Beat drops into sparse, echoing synths]
Low light on the ceiling
Can I outrun this feeling?
If I scream into the pillow
Will it echo back some meaning?
I don't want another breakdown
But I'm half-way to the floor now
If I open up my chest
Will I find anything worth the war now?
[Soft Chorus]
[Drums fade, clean keys and distant vocal layers]
I'm stuck between fear and falling (so afraid)
Too numb to run, too tired for crawling
Heart like a siren, always calling
But a little voice says, "Keep on, keep on"
All this weight that I've been hauling
Lifts for a breath, I hear it thawing
Still stuck between fear and falling
But I see a faint line
Of a new morning

rap, Dark metal-trap hybrid: distorted guitars double a snarling synth lead over heavy 808s and sharp hats. Male vocals, half-rapped verses in a tight pocket, then a soaring, melodic chorus with layered harmonies. Bridge strips to clean keys, distant reverb, and low vox before a final soft chorus gliding over a minimal, pulsing low-end., soft, metal
