[Intro – distant piano, vinyl crackle, ambient rain, whispered atmosphere] It starts in my eyes, that familiar burn The signal that sorrow has taken its turn I feel it in chords other people ignore They dance while I drown on the very same floor [Verse 1 ] They hear a bright anthem, a drum, a refrain I hear the echo of someone in pain The major keys shimmer, all hopeful and wide But under their laughter, a sadness resides A single guitar line can fracture my chest A harmony whispers of all I’ve repressed The world hums along, unbothered, unscarred I’m caught in the current, I feel it too hard [Pre-Chorus ] I don’t wish this on them I envy their peace Their hearts built with armor Their effortless ease They sing through the sunlight Untouched by the gray While I stand in the same warmth And slowly decay [Chorus ] I feel everything Every wound, every memory Every ghost in the silence Still clawing at me I feel everything Like the world lives inside my veins And the music keeps pulling Every scar to the surface again [Verse 2] The music remembers what I can’t forget The things that I did The things I regret Each note is a mirror reflecting my face Each pause is a moment I failed to erase I am strong in the body I fight, I endure But melodies cut me In places too pure My heart’s an old chapel with shattered stained glass Each sorrow shines through me It never quite passed [Breakdown] How do you survive When you feel every scream? How do you stay whole When compassion bleeds through everything? I wanted a better world But I can’t carry its weight alone [Final Chorus] I feel everything Every ache, every fracture Every innocent crying Like it’s happening after I feel everything And I’m drowning in sound again Watching my whole life unravel Inside the hum of a hymn [Outro] So if the world keeps singing While I fall apart At least now you know This is how I hear it This is how I carry it This is how I survive [end song]
