[Verse 1] We sat in silence, a world undone, Two shadows cast by a fading sun. Memories whispered, though we knew they would, Each word a dagger, each breath a flood. We stared ahead, seems I knew I would. [Chorus 1] I didn’t want this, the weight’s too much, A fragile balance that crumbles at touch. Somebody help me, I’m sinking deep, In a restless ocean, I can’t find sleep. I didn’t want this, yet I adore, The ache, the fire, the constant war. Somebody help me, I’m losing ground, A voice that screams but makes no sound. [Verse 2] Round and round, the same refrain, The cycle turns, it always ends the same. Two lives collide, a spark, a flame, But nothing lingers, not even the name. Another scar, another blame. [Chorus 2] I didn’t want this, the cost is steep, Each moment borrowed, the pain I keep. Somebody help me, I’m lost inside, A fractured soul with nowhere to hide. I didn’t want this, yet I can’t let go, The bitter truth that I’ve come to know. Somebody help me, I’m barely here, Each breath I take, it disappears. I didn’t want this, but I crave the sting, The broken harmony it seems to bring. Somebody help me, I need release, An end to this war, a taste of peace. [Bridge] [clean tone] [melodic bass] [dynamic drums] All I ever really wanted was to be the same, To walk the line without the shame. Never stopped myself from pretending, A perfect image, forever bending. But the cracks were there, they always showed, A truth I buried, a weight I owed. All I wanted was a life unbound, A sense of self I’ve never found. [Verse 3] I watch you now, so perfect, so pure, A mirror to what I can’t endure. So worthless, so flawed, I feel the divide, A chasm too deep, a truth I can’t hide. If I could rewrite it, think again, I would, Undo the hurt, make it understood. But time won’t turn, though I wish it could. [Chorus 3] I didn’t want this, the cost is steep, Each moment borrowed, the pain I keep. Somebody help me, I’m lost inside, A fractured soul with nowhere to hide. I didn’t want this, yet I can’t let go, The bitter truth that I’ve come to know. Somebody help me, I’m barely here, Each breath I take, it disappears. I didn’t want this, but I crave the sting, The broken harmony it seems to bring. Somebody help me, I need release, An end to this war, a taste of peace. [Outro] [Fades out] Would somebody help me breathe? Would somebody help me leave?
