[Verse 1] Woke up sick inside my skin, like the sun forgot my face. I crawl through hours made of dust, in this hollow, silent place. Coffee tastes like bitter lies, music sounds like rusted chains, every breath I try to steal turns to smoke inside my brain. I see the mirror, it don’t blink, it just watches me decay… Like I’m a ghost still learning how to rot away. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] And I pray to something holy but the ceiling never cracks, I can feel the weight returning like a knife inside my back. ⸻ [Chorus] Darkness owns my name… It carved it into bone. Darkness owns my name… Even when I’m not alone. I can run, I can scream, I can drown out all the blame… But the shadow keeps whispering: Darkness owns my name. ⸻ [Verse 2] Some days feel like open wounds that the world keeps rubbing raw. I try to laugh, I try to move, but my body hits the floor. Friends talk like they understand, but their words don’t reach my head, it’s like shouting through the ocean to the drowning and the dead. I wear a smile like stolen clothes, it never fits my frame… And the night comes back to claim me every time I breathe your name. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus] I taste the poison in the silence, I hear the hunger in the rain, and the past keeps scratching at the door like it wants to crawl inside my veins. ⸻ [Chorus] Darkness owns my name… It carved it into bone. Darkness owns my name… Even when I’m not alone. I can run, I can scream, I can drown out all the blame… But the shadow keeps whispering: Darkness owns my name. ⸻ [Bridge] (slow, haunting harmonies) Then I get a day of light… just a day… A small breath… A fragile break… I feel the air turn warm again, I feel my hands stop shaking. I almost think I’m healing… I almost think I’m waking. But hope is just a visitor who never wants to stay… It kisses me on the forehead then it walks away. And I know… deep in my chest… that this ain’t done. ⸻ [Verse 3] The darkness waits behind my ribs, patient like a loaded gun. It smiles when I start to rise, ‘cause it knows I’ll come undone. It floods my blood with bitter waves, turns my heartbeat into stone, and every time I try to love I feel more alone. I tried to build a little faith from the ruins of my pain, but the storm comes back to drown it like it hates me for my name. And I whisper to the ceiling, “I don’t wanna live this way…” But the silence only answers: “You were mine since yesterday.” ⸻ [Final Chorus] (bigger, heavier, desperate) Darkness owns my name… It carved it into bone. Darkness owns my name… Even when I’m not alone. I can fight, I can pray, I can beg to be the same… But the shadow keeps singing: Darkness owns my name. Darkness owns my name… It lives inside my veins. Darkness owns my name… And it’s coming back again. I can breathe for a while, I can heal for a day… But I know the flood is rising— and it’s washing hope away. ⸻ [Outro] (fading, whispered) A few days of healing… A lifetime of pain… And the darkness… still remembers my name.
