VOID HANDS / ECHOES

[Intro – phone mic / static / shaky breath] …don’t… don’t listen to this… …I don’t sound right… [Verse 1 – soft melodic rap] You look at me like I’m still whole Like there’s something left to hold I let you love the edited me While everything inside corrodes I almost told you everything Felt it rise, then let it sink If I said it how it is You’d never look at me the same, I think [Pre-Chorus – airy / fragile build] If I open up, I come undone There’s no clean version of what I’ve become And I don’t think you’d stay with me If you saw the whole of me [Chorus – melodic hook → drop] There’s a void where I stand You reach out, you grab my hand But there’s nothing you can hold I slip away, I lose control I am merely a shadow of what I once was Try to love me, it’s never enough If you felt what’s in my chest You’d leave me like the rest [Verse 2 – trap flow / unstable] I push you back before you go I’d rather crash than lose control End it early in my head Before you say it out instead Replay your voice inside my skull Every word I never told Even when I say it right It still collapses, I lose it all [Bridge – raw confession / stripped, almost spoken] I don’t hate you—I hate this part That tears good things all apart That makes me doubt what you give Like I don’t deserve to live in it If I showed you everything I hide No edits, nothing left inside You’d finally see what I’ve become— A fading echo of who I was [Breakdown – trap metal / glitch loop / distorted] Lost… lost… in the sound (Lost—lost—) I’m not found Lost… lost… in the sound (Static—static—) breaking down [Final Chorus – cinematic / heavy] There’s a void where I stand You reach out, you grab my hand But there’s nothing you can hold I break apart, I lose control I am merely a shadow of what I once was Every piece of me undone If you saw the real inside You’d leave me every time [Outro – glitch / fading signal] …lost… …in the sound…
