### Intro (Whisper) Can you hear them... Because I can... Every... Single... Day... --- ### Verse 1 Every morning starts the same, Wake up tired, wearing shame. Another war inside my head, Fighting ghosts that never left. Mirror says, "You're doing fine..." The voices laugh, "You're out of time." I wear a smile they all believe, While something's dying underneath. I'm so tired of pretending, Like these cracks ain't slowly spreading. People only see the shell... They never see the private hell. --- ### Pre-Chorus Some days... I search for a reset button. One press... No more noise. No more weight. No more monsters. But something deep inside me whispers... "Not today..." --- ### Chorus These are the monsters I carry, Every scar, every memory. Every voice that tells me I'll never be enough. They're screaming through the silence, Building walls instead of bridges. I'm still breathing... Even when I forget how to live. These are the monsters I carry... But they don't carry me... Not today. --- ### Verse 2 People think I'm hard to love, Truth is... I'm scared you'll get too close. Because behind these guarded eyes Lives a man I've learned to hide. These walls weren't built to shelter me... They were built so you would never see The broken pieces underneath, The parts of me that still can't breathe. I've mastered looking okay, I've perfected walking away. Not because I don't need someone... Because I'm terrified you'll run. --- ### Pre-Chorus The silence gets louder... The darkness gets heavier... The numbness feels safer... Until one tiny voice... Refuses to disappear. --- ### Chorus These are the monsters I carry, Every scar, every memory. Every voice that tells me I'll never be enough. They're screaming through the silence, Building walls instead of bridges. I'm still breathing... Even when I forget how to live. These are the monsters I carry... But they don't carry me... Not today. --- ### Bridge If you could hear inside my mind, You'd understand these sleepless nights. Every failure... Every goodbye... Every "you're not enough"... Still echoes. I've searched for peace In empty places. I've looked for silence Inside the noise. I've begged the darkness To leave me alone... But every sunrise... I'm still here. --- ### Final Chorus These are the monsters I carry, Every wound that's still inside me. Every battle no one sees, Every silent victory. I may bend... I may break... But I'm stronger than yesterday. You can hear the fear inside me... But you can also hear... The fight. These are the monsters I carry... They'll walk beside me For the rest of my life. But they'll never... Choose the ending... Because that choice... Is still... Mine. --- ### Outro (Almost whispered) The monsters are still here... The noise is still here... The pain is still here... ... So am I. And tomorrow... I'll fight again.
