Blackouts Through Time

V6

[INTRO - DISTANT / LOW] Black… Out… Through time. I remember pieces. Not the whole thing. Just what’s left. [VERSE 1 - LOW, CONTROLLED] There’s years inside my head that I can’t put in order Pages ripped apart, left scattered on the floor I remember certain nights, but not what came before ’em Like somebody cut the film and never gave me more of it I got fragments in the dark Faces blurred into a shape Words I wish I could remember Memories I can’t replace Every year took something Every scar left something too I don’t know who I would’ve been If I hadn’t lived through what I do I wasn’t built from patience I wasn’t built from peace I was built from every fucking thing That tried to bury me [PRE-HOOK - BUILDING] Blackout after blackout Another piece disappears I kept walking through the damage Till the damage brought me here No witness. No explanation. Just another year. [HOOK - DARK, CONTROLLED] BLACKOUTS THROUGH TIME Whole pieces missing from my mind I can’t remember every wound But I remember what it left behind BUILT BY DAMAGE Every fracture changed my shape I kept losing parts of myself Just to find another way And when I look around… There’s nobody in the room. No people. No God. Just me and what I’ve become. [VERSE 2 - HARDER] I’ve had conversations with an empty fucking chair Asked questions to the ceiling Like somebody might be there Nothing answered. Nothing moved. Just the hum beneath the floor So I stopped waiting for a voice That wasn’t coming through the door I learned silence isn’t peaceful When you’ve lived inside your head Sometimes silence is a hallway Full of everything you left Every failure left a fingerprint Every loss became a brick Every time I thought I couldn’t take it Added weight to what I built Now I’m looking at the damage Like a map across my skin I don’t celebrate the scars But I know where I’ve been [PRE-HOOK - QUIETER] Some memories are photographs. Some are only smoke. Some years feel like they happened… To somebody I don’t know. [HOOK - HEAVIER] BLACKOUTS THROUGH TIME Whole pieces missing from my mind I can’t remember every wound But I remember what it left behind BUILT BY DAMAGE Every fracture changed my shape I kept losing parts of myself Just to find another way And when I look around… There’s nobody in the room. No people. No God. Just me and what I’ve become. [BRIDGE - WHISPERED] Maybe that’s the part nobody tells you… You can survive something… And still lose pieces of yourself inside it. Years disappear. People disappear. Versions of you disappear. And eventually… You stop asking where they went. [BEAT DROPS OUT] No footsteps. No voices. No prayers. No answer. [LOW VOCAL] Just me. [BEAT RETURNS] [VERSE 3 - RISING INTENSITY] I don’t need to remember every second To know that it changed me Don’t need every missing chapter To know what the pages made me I carry every blackout Like a room without a light Every piece I couldn’t save Still follows me at night I was made from fucking damage But I’m more than what it broke I was buried underneath it Till I learned to fucking grow No savior at the window No hand reaching through the smoke No crowd around the wreckage No one there to hear me choke Just an empty room And the sound of my own breathing That’s when I finally understood… Nobody was coming. [FINAL HOOK - POWERFUL, NOT CONSTANTLY SCREAMED] BLACKOUTS THROUGH TIME I lost years but I’m still alive Every scar became a piece Of the thing I couldn’t leave behind BUILT BY DAMAGE Yeah, the damage made me strong Not because I fucking wanted it But because I had to carry on Look around. Nobody in the room. No people. No God. Nothing left to prove. [BREAKDOWN - BRIEF SCREAM] NO GOD. NO WITNESS. NO ONE. [DROP] JUST ME. [OUTRO - LOW / DISTANT] Blackouts through time… I don’t remember everything. Maybe I never will. But I remember this: I was broken… And somehow… I kept becoming.
