Empty On The Edge

I’m sittin’ on my bed, sheets twisted like my mind,

Starin’ at the ceiling, where my shadows intertwine.

Room’s a wreck, like my head, it’s a battlefield inside,

Depression’s got me chained, nowhere left for me to hide.

Yesterday was brutal, man, the worst I ever felt,

Mind spinnin’ like a cyclone, panic creepin’ as it swelled.

No cause, no spark, just a weight that crushed my chest,

Tears kept fallin’ heavy, couldn’t catch a single breath.

Cried all damn day, couldn’t pin down what was wrong,

Just a void inside my soul, like my spirit’s been too long.

Used to love the little things, now they don’t ignite a flame,

Every passion that I had’s gettin’ swallowed by the pain.

I’m empty on the edge, feelin’ nothin’ in my core,

Hobbies don’t excite me, don’t love nothin’ anymore.

Video games, movies, shows, they don’t pull me in,

Pain’s too loud, it’s screamin’, I don’t know where to begin.

I’m empty on the edge, got no energy to fight,

Sittin’ in the dark, prayin’ I can find the light.

Depression’s got my soul, yeah, it’s holdin’ me tight,

But I’m tryna find a way to make it through another night.

I’m flippin’ through my memories, tryna find the old spark,

The kid who used to smile, who wasn’t scared of the dark.

Now I’m trapped inside this shell, just a ghost beneath my skin,

Every joy I used to chase feels like it’s been boxed in.

Picked up my controller, but the buttons feel like stone,

Screen’s just static noise, no escape to call my own.

Movies drag like weights, can’t connect to what I see,

Every hobby’s like a stranger, it don’t even feel like me.

Some days I don’t move, just sink deeper in this bed,

Thoughts keep circlin’ tighter, like a noose around my head.

I’m numb to all the things that used to set my heart ablaze,

Feelin’ like I’m lost inside a never-endin’ maze.

I’m empty on the edge, feelin’ nothin’ in my core,

Hobbies don’t excite me, don’t love nothin’ anymore.

Video games, movies, shows, they don’t pull me in,

Pain’s too loud, it’s screamin’, I don’t know where to begin.

I’m empty on the edge, got no energy to fight,

Sittin’ in the dark, prayin’ I can find the light.

Depression’s got my soul, yeah, it’s holdin’ me tight,

But I’m tryna find a way to make it through another night.

I’m screamin’ in my head, but the world don’t hear a sound,

Feelin’ like I’m sinkin’ with no solid ground around.

Tell myself to rise, but my body’s glued in place,

Starin’ at the mirror, don’t recognize my own face.

But there’s a piece of me that’s fightin’, though it’s buried deep,

Holdin’ on to hope, even when it’s hard to keep.

I’m clawin’ through the dark, tryna break this heavy chain,

’Cause I know I’m more than just the echoes of my pain.
