[Verse] I carved my name into the foggy glass A fleeting mark It’ll never last The air is heavy Like your silent blame A ghost in the room But I’m the one you name [Chorus] Resentful shadows They cling to me For being the monster you didn’t want to see I wear my skin like it’s a curse I chose Regrets bloom like thorns on a dying rose [Verse 2] Your words They hang like knives in the air Each cut a reminder A cross to bear I built myself from the ashes of shame But you hate the fire You hate the flame [Prechorus] Would you rather I crumble Would you rather I break Or would you build me a cage For your own heart’s sake [Chorus] Resentful shadows They cling to me For being the monster you didn’t want to see I wear my skin like it’s a curse I chose Regrets bloom like thorns on a dying rose [Bridge] Every breath I take feels like a crime Every word I speak A shattered rhyme If I could fold myself into a smaller shape Would you still see me as a wraith to escape
