*(Intro – Samuel male vocals)** I thought it was over, thought I shut the door But your shadow's in the mirror, crawling back for more Every time I breathe, you twist my lungs You said you’d leave… now look what you’ve become --- **(Spixe – Deep, gritty male voice)** You missed me, didn't you? Come on, say it Without me, you’re weak — just fake it, face it You act like you’re better, like you’re so healed But I’m the one truth that you can’t conceal **(Samuel male voice)** Shut up! You’re nothing but a ghost in my mind A parasite feeding on what I left behind You call that truth? I call it chains Every word from you just fuels my pain **(Spixe deep dark male voice)** But you *need* me when the lights go out When they doubt you, shame you, push you down I’m the roar in your chest, the fight in your fist Without me, you’re just a name they won’t miss --- **(Chorus – Samuel & Spixe overlapping)** *(Samuel male vocals)* You’re just echoes in my mind, I won’t listen Tired of the war, tired of the friction You’re poison wrapped in a voice I once knew I’m done being broken by you *(Spixe deep dark male vocals)* I’m the truth you bury in prayer and pills The rage in your bones when time stands still I’m your shadow, Samuel — I’ll never be through Because when you look inside… I *am* you --- **(Verse 2 – Samuel male voice)** I’ve walked through fire just to prove I’m clean But you’re dragging me back into every scene You’re not a friend, you’re a leech, you lie You want me broken, curled up asking why **(Spixe deep dark male voice)** Nah, I want you real, not some fake messiah You think healing means silence? You’re preaching to a liar I made you strong, made you scream through the cracks If I’m a monster — you built me from scraps **(Samuel male voice)** Then I’ll tear it all down, brick by brick This house you haunt? I’m sick of it You had your time, your poison reign Now it’s my voice screaming through the pain --- **(Chorus – Samuel & Spixe)** *(Samuel male voice)* You’re just echoes in my mind, I won’t listen Tired of the war, tired of the friction You’re poison wrapped in a voice I once knew I’m done being broken by you *(Spixe deep dark voice)* I’m the pain that built you, don’t forget I’m the scars that speak when you regret You’re hollow without me, don’t pretend Because this war? It *never* ends --- **(Bridge – Aggressive trade-off)** **(Spixe)** You can’t erase me **(Samuel)** I’ll burn the page **(Spixe)** You’ll break again **(Samuel)** Then I’ll break through the cage **(Spixe)** You’ll fall **(Samuel)** I’ll rise **(Spixe)** You’ll cry **(Samuel)** I’ll fight **(Both)** I AM THE STORM THAT SURVIVES THE NIGHT! --- **(Final Chorus – Samuel only, triumphant tone)** You're just echoes in my mind, fading slow I won’t let you stay, won’t let you grow You're done whispering through my doubt and fear I’ve found my strength — you’re no longer my master
