Empty Shadows of Me

[Verse] I step into the mirror cracks on the glass Empty eyes staring back can't outrun my past I try to stand taller they just drag me down A silent scream swallowed I wear this frown [Chorus] You’ll never be enough that's what you hear A voice in the shadows it feeds off your fear You try to claw upward but you slip and you slide There's nowhere to run from the war inside [Verse 2] The sun burns my skin I seek out the shade I run from the light in this game I've played Every small step forward met with mocking laughs A path I can’t follow swallowed in the past [Chorus] You’ll never be enough that's what you hear A voice in the shadows it feeds off your fear You try to claw upward but you slip and you slide There's nowhere to run from the war inside [Bridge] These bones feel so heavy this shell's paper thin A weight on my chest where do I begin The world doesn't listen when I voice my plea It's not just the dark it's the silence that bleeds [Verse 3] I hold on to hope but it crumbles like sand Broken pieces fall through my trembling hand The taunts in my head they're louder today I fight ‘gainst the storm but I drown in the spray
