[Verse 1 – (Shoegaze / soft vocals)] I wake up in the silence But your echo's in the air Every shadow on the ceiling Feels like you're still there Your whispers haunt the daylight Your touch, a phantom flame I beg my mind to free me But it keeps repeating your name [Pre-Chorus] Tried to erase you from the smoke But your poison’s in my bones Your name still burns beneath my skin No matter what — you always win [Chorus – (Heavy / first impact)] Linger in the nightmare — you crawl inside Burning down my sanity I tried to hide You broke me when I trusted you the most Now I wear your lies like a ghost [Verse 2 – (Low tone, building up tension)] Your silence is a weapon You used it like a blade Cut me in the quiet Where I thought I was safe Now every word feels hollow Like echoes from the grave I reach for something real But all you ever gave... was pain [Pre-Chorus – (Same lyrics, more intense delivery)] I carved your lies into my soul Now I wear them like control You tried to break what’s left of me But I’ve become what you can’t see [Chorus – (Heavier / layered screams)] Linger in the nightmare — you feed on fear Your voice is the static I always hear You broke me when I reached for the light Now I fight in the dark every night [Bridge – buildup] You watched me drown And called it love Now choke on the fire You lit in my blood [Breakdown – (Nu metal riff + brutal scream)] Lie… to… me… And… die… with it… I gave… you… everything… You… burned… it… bit by bit… Now I stand… in the ashes… Of what we… used to be… You fed… on my weakness… But now… you answer… to me… [Final Chorus – (Epic / layered vocals + harmony + screams + big chords)] No more nightmares — I’ve become the end Buried your voice, no need to pretend I tore your shadow from my spine Lit the match — watched it die in time You tried to own me, twist my fate But now you drown in what you made This is the silence after the scream No gods, no mercy — no more dreams [Outro – (echoing + slow fade)] I wake up in the silence... But now I’m finally free...
