War Inside my Head

V5.5

you’re not enough / you never were / don’t fight it / give in (soft lead) No… not this again ⸻ [Verse 1 – controlled, tense] It starts so quiet I almost miss it A single thought that doesn’t sit right Then it spreads like a fracture line Through everything I try to keep steady I tell myself I’m still in control But I can feel it slipping Every second I hesitate It gets a little louder ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – rising tension] They know every weakness Every place I hide Every word that cuts me From the inside (whispers grow) we know you / we own you ⸻ [Chorus – powerful, emotional] There’s a war inside my head Voices pulling me apart Every line I try to draw They erase it in the dark I keep fighting just to breathe Just to keep my footing straight But the enemy I face Wears my voice… and knows my name ⸻ [Verse 2 – more aggressive, cracks showing] They twist every memory I trust Turn it into something heavier Every failure replays in loops Like I’m meant to never outgrow it I try to silence all the noise But silence feeds them more They fill the space with everything I’ve been trying to ignore ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – layered voices, louder] They know every weakness Every place I hide Every word that cuts me From the inside (demon voice stronger) stop fighting / you’ll break / you always break ⸻ [Chorus – bigger, layered with screams] There’s a war inside my head Voices tearing through my chest Every step I try to take Leaves me further from my best I keep fighting just to stand Just to prove I’m not what they say But the enemy I face Looks at me… and wears my face ⸻ [Breakdown – call & response] (heavy, aggressive) DEMONS: GIVE IT UP LEAD: No— DEMONS: YOU’RE TOO WEAK LEAD: I’m still here DEMONS: YOU CAN’T WIN LEAD (shouting): WATCH ME TRY DEMONS (layered, chaotic): you’ll fall / you’ll break / you’ll lose control LEAD (scream): THEN I’LL FIGHT IT ALL ⸻ [Bridge – quiet, fragile clarity] (soft, stripped back) Maybe I don’t need to silence them Maybe I just need to survive them They can scream They can stay …but they don’t get to choose ⸻ [Final Chorus – defiant, powerful] There’s a war inside my head And I’m done backing away Every scar, every word Didn’t take me out that way I’m still breathing through the noise Still standing in the flame And the enemy I face …doesn’t get to decide my name ⸻ [Outro – fading whispers, quieter now] (whispers fading) not enough… not enough… (soft lead) …not true (silence)
