[Verse 1] [Soft, intimate delivery – close mic, airy tone, restrained emotion] In the shadows of my mind. I wander lost and blind. Caught in a storm of thoughts, I cannot leave behind. Every smile feels like a lie, every laugh just a disguise. In this endless sea of pain, where hope slowly dies. [Slight vocal crack allowed, breath audible at line endings] [Chorus] [AYA lead – emotional R&B phrasing, warm mid-range, light belt on last lines] Oh, these demons in my head. They whisper lies, I'm filled with dread. Lost in darkness, drowning deep. In this endless void, where I silently weep. [Background: soft layered harmonies, sustained vowels] [Verse 2] [Lower register focus (A3–C4), calm but heavy, storytelling] Days blend into nights, as I fight this endless fight. Haunted by memories, that refuse to see the light. Every step feels like a crawl, every breath a heavy load. In this suffocating silence, where my soul's corroded. [Let silence breathe between phrases] [Chorus] [AYA remains clean & emotional against heavy instrumentation – contrast is key] [Stronger belt (D5–E5), controlled power, no distortion] Oh, these demons in my head. They whisper lies, I'm filled with dread. Lost in darkness, drowning deep. In this endless void, where I silently weep. [Add octave harmony on final line, emotional peak] [Outro] [Tempo pulls back – fragile, almost whispered] So I'll close my eyes and pretend. That this nightmare someday will end. But until then, I'll keep holding on. To the hope that I'll find peace when the darkness is gone. [Pause – breath] Either I die, or I live forever [soft sustain, fading] Either I die, or I live forever [Final line – barely spoken, emotionally broken] maybe I die...
