*(Verse 1)* Heavy hands, I’ve let them fall, Can’t reach out, can’t break this wall. Echoes of silence, screaming through, The bonds I held feel too untrue. My every text is met with delay, All of my calls just fade away. Can’t blame them, but I wish they’d fight, For the person sinking out of sight. *(Pre-Chorus)* I’m scared of the void, but it’s pulling me in, A shadow born of my own skin. Can’t touch, can’t feel, I’m breaking apart, A stranger within my own heart. *(Chorus)* This weight is crushing, I can’t stand tall, It’s in the silence where I’ve lost it all. I’m screaming inside, but it’s all in vain, Drowning in the flood of my own pain. How do I fix what’s slipping away, When each try leaves me to pay? Afraid of the loss, afraid of the fight, Afraid of the dark swallowing my light. *(Verse 2)* Mirror cracked, I see the flaws, Hollow eyes and broken jaws. Unworthy of the love I seek, I’m too tired to fix what makes me weak. Society’s rules keep me caged, My touch a crime, left unengaged. A hand on a shoulder feels miles away, Loneliness growing with each passing day. *(Pre-Chorus)* The threads are snapping, the ties are thin, I’m locked in a battle I can’t win. The ones I love drift further still, A gravity of doubt bends my will. *(Chorus)* This weight is crushing, I can’t stand tall, It’s in the silence where I’ve lost it all. I’m screaming inside, but it’s all in vain, Drowning in the flood of my own pain. How do I fix what’s slipping away, When each try leaves me to pay? Afraid of the loss, afraid of the fight, Afraid of the dark swallowing my light. *(Bridge)* I’m holding onto ghosts, their shadows fade, I reach for warmth, but it’s delayed. A desperate plea, a quiet shout, I’m terrified of being without. The touch I crave, the human skin, Is locked behind this fear within. I'm ugly and broken, an empty shell, A silent scream in a private hell. *(Breakdown)* Am I too late to change my fate? Will I lose them all before I’m awake? The weight’s too much, I’m sinking fast, Will I ever outgrow this shadow it casts? *(Chorus)* This weight is crushing, I can’t stand tall, It’s in the silence where I’ve lost it all. I’m screaming inside, but it’s all in vain, Drowning in the flood of my own pain. How do I fix what’s slipping away, When each try leaves me to pay? Afraid of the loss, afraid of the fight, Afraid of the dark swallowing my light. *(Outro)* Heavy hands, I let them fall, The weight’s too much; I’ve lost it all. If I could touch, if I could heal, Would anyone still care to feel? The weight remains, the silence grows, Loneliness in shadows, and nobody knows. I’m losing my grip, I’m losing my place, Fading away without a trace. *(Refrain)* This weight is crushing, I can’t stand tall, It’s in the silence where I’ve lost it all. I’m screaming inside, but it’s all in vain, Drowning in the flood of my own pain. The weight remains, the silence grows, Loneliness in shadows, and nobody knows. I’m losing my grip, I’m losing my place, Fading away without a trace. *(End)*
