Breaking Down the Walls

[Intro]
Whispers in the dark, they linger in my mind,  
Heavy shadows creeping, I'm running out of time.  
Every tick a warning, I'm fighting my way through,  
These chains of the past, they won’t set me loose.
[Verse 1]
Fragile like glass, I’m walking on the edge,  
Memories of pain, they are hanging by a thread.  
Abusers in the corners, they won’t let me be,  
Suffocating silence screams, "You’ll never be free."
[Pre-Chorus]
And I try to scream, but no sound comes out,  
Stuck in the battle of doubt and clout.  
Every step feels heavy, every breath, a chore,  
Caught in the struggle, I can’t take it anymore.
[Chorus]
I’m a ticking time bomb, can’t you hear me?  
Waiting for the moment that I’m finally free.  
Living with the ghosts, they haunt me every night,  
Will I break down the walls or fade out of sight?
[Bridge]
Oh, the pressure keeps building, I’m losing my ground,  
Falling deeper in the madness, where solace can't be found.  
The world spins around me, with a cruel little glee,  
While my probation officer just counts her trophies.
[Verse 2]
Each roadblock I face, it's another broken dream,  
Promises of support turn to silence, it seems.  
I’m desperately reaching for a sliver of hope,  
But the weight’s like a mountain; I’m learning to cope.
[Pre-Chorus]
And I try to scream, but no sound comes out,  
Stuck in the battle of doubt and clout.  
Fighting my demons, you won't let me go,  
I’m praying for courage, it’s starting to show.
[Chorus]
I’m a ticking time bomb, can’t you hear me?  
Waiting for the moment that I’m finally free.  
Living with the ghosts, they haunt me every night,  
Will I break down the walls or fade out of sight?
[Outro]
So hear me now, this fight's not over yet,  
I’ll rise from the ashes; you’ll get no regrets.  
I’m reclaiming my story, rewriting my song,  
With each step I take, I’ll prove them all wrong.
