Trapped in the Static

[Verse] Walls painted gray, they whisper my name A maze in my head, the rules never the same The mirror cracks, it won't look me in the eye I'm the ghost in my own house, can't say goodbye [Chorus] I'm a stranger in my skin, I can't make amends The war in my chest never ends, never bends Shouting at the silence, my voice comes back hollow Every step I take, my shadow won't follow [Verse 2] Footsteps in the hallway, but it's only me The locks on the doors don't come with a key These thoughts build a city, but the streets don't connect I wrote my own story, but I lost the pretext [Bridge] My heart beats in static, a glitch in the song The clock ticks backwards, where did I go wrong? The stranger I live with keeps stealing my name I can't find the ending; it's all just the same [Chorus] I'm a stranger in my skin, I can't make amends The war in my chest never ends, never bends Shouting at the silence, my voice comes back hollow Every step I take, my shadow won't follow [Verse 3] Maybe the fight's not to win but to see That the stranger inside might just be me The scars in the dark, they map out the truth A fractured reflection of a long-lost youth
