[Intro – Clean Guitar, distant ambient noise] I don’t even know who I am anymore... Just a hollow shell... Of someone I USED TO BE! [Verse 1] Every mirror shows a stranger’s face, Dark circles carved from years of pain. (Yell) I keep screaming into empty rooms, But all I hear is my own decay. I gave every piece of who I was, Trying just to hold this life together. But every step I take toward the light, Gets buried underneath the weather... [Pre-Chorus – rising emotion] NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRY! It’s never good enough... And it won’t ever be enough... [Chorus – Heavy distortion crashes in] So why do I... (Yell) EVEN TRY... To make this shit right anymore? I’m breaking down inside, While everybody shuts the door. I carried all this weight alone, Until I can’t feel anything anymore... I’m at the point... Of packing up and walking away... Maybe disappearing’s easier Than begging PEOPLE TO STAY!... [Verse 2 – Palm-muted guitars, emotional aggressive emo vocals] Every promise turned into regret, Every memory tastes like rust. I kept rebuilding shattered parts, Just for life to turn THEM ALL TO DUST! And I’m exhausted from pretending, Like I still believe things change. When every road just leads me back To the same fucking place... [Pre-Chorus] No matter HOW LOUD I SCREAM!... Nobody hears a thing... I’m fading into nothing... [Chorus – Bigger harmonies] So why do I... Even try... To make this shit right anymore? I sacrificed my soul, Just to end up ignored. Now every heartbeat feels like war, And I don’t know what I’m fighting for... I’m at the point... Of packing up and walking away... (Scream) MAYBE THIS BROKEN WORLD Would never miss me anyway... [Bridge – Soft clean section] Maybe I stayed too long... Maybe I gave too much... Maybe the version of me I was... Is already gone... [Breakdown – Crushing guitars / double kick] HOLLOW! SHELL! EMPTY! INSIDE! I tried to be enough... I tried to save us all... But every time I stand back up... Life makes me fucking crawl... [Final Chorus – Emotional climax] So why do I... Even try... When nothing ever changes? I’m drowning in myself, And I can’t escape the cages. Every wound still bleeds the same, Every fire leaves more damage... I’m at the point... Of packing up and walking away... Before there’s nothing left of me... To save... [Outro – Clean guitar fading] I don’t even know who I am anymore... Just a hollow shell... Of someone (SCREAM) I USED TO BE…
