[Verse 1]
Momma's rage a thunderstorm, dad's silence a sword
Bruises on my soul paved roads I can't ignore
Tucking screams inside my chest, wounds I couldn’t bind
No sanctuary ever, not even in my mind
[Chorus]
Whispers in my head, screaming louder than the night
Shadows of my youth, gripping heavy, holding tight
Pain a heavy anchor, drowning where I stand
Still searching for the lifeboat in these empty hands
[Verse 2]
Dark halls, locked doors, nowhere to run
Memories like vampires never see the sun
Eyes open in the bed, heart closed and numb
Swallowed by the echoes where the monsters come from
[Bridge]
Every shadow on the wall a face I couldn’t trust
Dreams buried in the dirt, left them in the dust
Hope's a bruised melody, strumming at my core
A song for lost children, screaming what’s ignored
[Chorus]
Whispers in my head, screaming louder than the night
Shadows of my youth, gripping heavy, holding tight
Pain a heavy anchor, drowning where I stand
Still searching for the lifeboat in these empty hands
[Verse 3]
Tears dried into armor, steel forged in regret
Wish I could escape the weight, but I ain’t there yet
Waves crashing in my chest, a tide made of grief
Days a fleeting prison, nights offer no relief
