[Verse 1] Pressure’s building in my chest again, breathing feels like drowning in my own skin. Every heartbeat cuts like a blade, can’t escape the cage that my bones made. [Pre-Chorus] They say “it’s in your mind,” but I can’t fake it, pain’s a prayer — and I can’t shake it. X-rays show nothing, but I know what’s real, this weight inside is all I feel. [Chorus] Thorax — my prison, my pain, my scar, every breath reminds me who we are. Cracked ribs, black lungs, a dying spark, I’m alive… but barely in the dark. [Verse 2] Can’t scream, ‘cause the air cuts deep, every night I fight the urge to sleep. Doctors talk but they never see, the war inside my anatomy. [Pre-Chorus] Told me “just breathe,” but it’s not that easy, every inhale feels cold and sleazy. I’m breaking slow, beneath my skin, where pain and silence both begin. [Chorus] Thorax — my prison, my pain, my scar, every breath reminds me who we are. Cracked ribs, black lungs, a dying spark, I’m alive… but barely in the dark. [Bridge] If this is life, I’ll wear it raw, my chest a cage, my bones a war. Don’t tell me “heal” — I’ve tried before, I’m bleeding from the inside floor. [Final Chorus] Thorax — still burning, still torn apart, heart keeps beating through the dark. If pain is proof that I exist, then let me choke — but never quit. [Outro – whispered] Thorax… my body’s grave, but I still breathe, I’m still brave.
