Part B⋆｡°✩ Some Kind of Way ✩°｡⋆

[Intro] [Low distorted guitar riff, tense and repeating] [Male vocal, quiet and close] They said I didn’t have to carry it alone… [Verse 1] They said I didn’t have to carry All the weight inside my chest Said I could bring them every shadow So I could finally rest But the second I started speaking I felt like I crossed the line Left me feeling like I’m too much Now I’m overthinking every sign And you keep telling me to stop Putting ghosts where they don’t belong But how do I know what’s real When safe starts feeling wrong? [Pre-Chorus] [Drums begin building, guitars tighten] Having a voice don’t mean it’s heard Having a wound don’t mean it’s seen Everybody wants the honest truth Till it bleeds on something clean [Chorus] [Huge melodic male vocal, full guitars, heavy drums] How am I supposed to come to you When I leave with all this shame? You said, “say what you gotta say” Till it made you feel some kind of way Now I’m swallowing the ocean Trying not to call it rain Every time I open up I learn a new way to close again No one understands No one understands How much goes unspoken When silence feels safer than hands [Post-Chorus] [Main guitar riff returns heavier] Some kind of way Some kind of way [Verse 2] [Groove-heavy riff, half-rapped male vocal] Everyone wants a hero Till they see what battles do Till the armor gets too heavy Till the hurting touches you Everybody says, “I’m with you” Everybody says, “I care” But their eyes start moving different When the damage hits the air They say, “you’re not too much” But I leave feeling like I am Like I handed you my shaking And you blamed me for your hands So I fold it back inside me Make a home inside my throat Write the truth in disappearing ink Then wonder why I choke [Pre-Chorus] [Building intensity, vocal more strained] I keep trying something different But it lands the same somehow I reach out from the deep end And regret it when I’m found [Chorus] [Explosive, melodic, heavier than first chorus] How am I supposed to come to you When I leave with all this shame? You said, “say what you gotta say” Till it made you feel some kind of way Now I’m swallowing the ocean Trying not to call it rain Every time I open up I learn a new way to close again No one understands No one understands How much goes unspoken When silence feels safer than hands [Bridge] [Drop down, clean guitar tension, low vocal] I convinced myself it’s easier to stay quiet But quiet doesn’t heal I told myself it’s safer not to need help Than admit how much I feel It’s not easy suffering alone It’s not peace, it’s just control And I hate that I keep drowning While apologizing for the cold [Breakdown] [Heavy chugs, stop-start rhythm, controlled harsh screams] They said I could come to them They said I could come to them [Scream] But safety shouldn’t disappear [Scream] The moment pain becomes the truth [Heavy instrumental break] [Let the main riff return, darker and heavier] [Progressive guitar accents, double-kick bursts] [Final Chorus] [Biggest chorus, emotional male belt, layered backing vocals] How am I supposed to come to you When I leave with all this shame? You said, “say what you gotta say” Till it made you feel some kind of way Now I’m swallowing the ocean Trying not to call it rain Every time I open up I learn a new way to close again No one understands No one understands How much goes unspoken When silence feels safer than hands [Outro] [Final riff repeats, slowly falling apart] I wish I wasn’t drowning I wish I didn’t know How lonely it can feel To have nowhere safe to go [Final whispered vocal] Some kind of way…
