I wake up choking on another lie

[Verse 1] I wake up choking on another lie These four walls scream but I can't cry I'm hollowed out, worn paper-thin Another war I’ll never win [Chorus] It’s hard to hang on to this life anymore I’m a ghost behind a locked front door No light left under this skin Just a voice that’s caving in [Verse 2] I fake a smile to buy some time But I’m drowning in my own disguise The mirror knows what I became Just a name fading into shame [Bridge] Don't say "be strong" — that ship has burned I'm just ashes in lessons never learned [Final Chorus] It’s hard to hang on, I’m slipping fast No future left, just haunted past And if I go, don’t call it brave Just another soul you couldn’t save
