still inside
The walls don’t move, the air just hums, I count the cracks, forget my lungs. The noise I was is buried deep, I’m wide awake but half asleep. I used to feel the world collide, Now it just drifts and passes by. I’m still inside — No pulse, no sign. I used to scream just to feel alive, Now I’m too numb to even try. The silence fits me like a lie — I’m still inside. I breathe in static, fade in grey, The colors drain, they slip away. My hands don’t shake, they just exist, I talk to ghosts I can’t resist. I used to feel the world collide, Now it just drifts and passes by. I’m still inside — No pulse, no sign. I used to scream just to feel alive, Now I’m too numb to even try. The silence fits me like a lie — I’m still inside. No rise, no fall, No weight at all. If I could break this empty skin, Would something real come pouring in? If quiet means I’m finally free, Then maybe that’s enough for me. I thought I’d find a way to start, But I’m just tracing where I fell apart. The calm I wanted pulled me down — Now I can’t hear a sound. I’m still inside — No pulse, no sign. I used to scream just to feel alive, Now I’m too numb to even try. The silence fits me like a lie — I’m still inside. I’m still inside — No pulse, no sign. I used to scream just to feel alive, Now I’m too numb to even try. The silence fits me like a lie — I’m still inside.
