Fighting with myself

hybrid industrial metalcore emo, baritone male vocals with raspy melodic verses and emotional gang-shout choruses, controlled screams only in the choruses, heavy palm-muted riffs, mechanical drums, grinding synth bass, subtle industrial electronics, big emotional choruses with crowd energy on the final chorus, clear lyrics, melodic but heavy, whispered outro

[Verse 1] Woke up in a room that I don't recognize Same four walls, but the air feels violent Teeth marks chewed in the side of my tongue From biting back every word I should've screamed Old notes on the floor like broken prayers I built a wall out of every “I’m fine” Stacked the bricks with the lies I told my friends Smiled in pictures while dying inside [Chorus] I am giving up on me Tearing down the parts that bleed If I can't outrun this disease Then I'll just watch it eat I am giving up on me Every promise, every plea Rip my name from my own teeth I am giving up on me [Verse 2] Therapist asked me “what do you need?” I said “just leave me alone, I’m okay” But every night I was down on my knees Begging the dark to just take me away Friends talk soft like I'm made of glass Then crack jokes when I don't collapse I'm too tired to play that role So I ghost my phone and I starve my soul [Bridge] Maybe I'm the weight that keeps me chained Maybe I'm the storm inside this brain If I'm the poison and the cure Tell me, what the hell I'm fighting for? [Final Chorus] I’m giving up on the old me Tearing down the parts that bleed If I can’t outrun this disease Then I’ll watch it die instead of me I’m still fighting with myself But this time I’m winning the war I took my life back off the shelf I don’t live there anymore [Outro] (whispered) Now I am free…
