[Verse 1 – Aggressive Rap / Dark Groove] Your words cut sharp, like a weapon Framing a world I never chose I feel you lurking in the silence Just like you always know, just like you always know Every glance, every breath, I’m cornered Every shadow that you cast, I’m haunted [Pre-Chorus – Tension Build / Rising Drive] Already closing me in, already under my skin I can see exactly where this goes Pulling me deeper, can’t defend I feel the line start to bend [Chorus – Anthemic Hook / Full Power] I let you break me open just to watch me fade Traded all my truth for the mask you made Don’t know why I’m chasing what I can’t believe Falling for the echo of the ghost I can’t deceive The ghost I can’t deceive [Verse 2 – Rhythmic Rap / Heavy Drive] Turning circles like a confession The ending written long before There’s a shadow in the chapel I keep surrendering for, I keep surrendering for Tied to the chains you throw around Lost in the noise, can’t hear a sound [Pre-Chorus – Tension Build / Rising Drive] Already closing me in, already under my skin I can see exactly where this goes Pulling me deeper, can’t defend I feel the line start to bend [Chorus – Anthemic Hook / Full Power] I let you break me open just to watch me fade Traded all my truth for the mask you made Don’t know why I’m chasing what I can’t believe Falling for the echo of the ghost I can’t deceive The ghost I can’t deceive [Bridge – Emotional Drop / Call & Response] I only wanted to feel connection I only wanted to feel reflection, reflection I only wanted to feel connection I only wanted to feel, to feel [Scream Layer] Can’t escape it, can’t erase it, can’t deceive it [Chorus – Reprise / Peak Energy] I let you break me open just to watch me fade Traded all my truth for the mask you made Don’t know why I’m chasing, so lost, so naïve Falling for the echo of the ghost I can’t deceive The ghost I can’t deceive [Outro – Dark Groove / Atmospheric Fade] The ghost I can’t deceive (I only wanted to feel connection) The ghost I can’t deceive (I only wanted to feel) The ghost I can’t deceive
