Where the Dark Breathes

[Intro – soft, eerie] Whispers in the walls again… Shadows know my name… [Verse 1] I lit a spark but it died in my hands Cold like the truth I don’t understand Every step echoes deeper below Into a place I swore I wouldn’t go I feel it crawling under my skin A quiet war that I’ll never win Eyes in the void, they’re watching me break Smiling at every mistake that I make [Pre-Chorus] I tried to run, but it follows close A ghost of who I used to know [Chorus] Where the dark breathes, I’m wide awake Every shadow pulls me under again No light left that I didn’t break Now I’m dancing with the devil within Feel it rise, feel it take control Every scar turning into sin Where the dark breathes… I lose my soul And I don’t know where I end or begin [Verse 2] Mirrors don’t show me anything real Just a reflection I don’t wanna feel Heartbeat syncing with something wrong Like I’ve been cursed here all along I hear it speak in a voice like mine Twisting the truth into perfect lies Tells me I’m home in the blackened deep Where all the broken and lost ones sleep [Pre-Chorus] I scream inside, but no one hears Just feeding off my darkest fears [Chorus] Where the dark breathes, I’m wide awake Every shadow pulls me under again No light left that I didn’t break Now I’m dancing with the devil within Feel it rise, feel it take control Every scar turning into sin Where the dark breathes… I lose my soul And I don’t know where I end or begin [Bridge – stripped, emotional] If I fade into the black… Will I finally feel intact? Or just disappear like smoke Another soul the darkness broke… [Final Chorus – bigger, intense] Where the dark breathes, I’m not the same Every piece of me swallowed whole No escape from the endless flame It’s a fire burning out my soul Feel it rise, let it take control I’m too far gone to pretend Where the dark breathes… I let it in Now the darkness is my only friend [Outro – fading] Whispers in the walls again… This is where I end…
