No cure for me

Verse 1 – tense, simmering)
I’m so tired of hearing how the wounds will fade with time
Like all the parts that shattered would just realign
You talk about “the old me” like he’s waiting to return
But you don’t know the version of myself you want me to unlearn

I’ve swallowed every story about healing if I try
But some things change you permanently — and that’s not a lie
Don’t preach about forgiveness like it’s meant to set me free
I’m chained to what I lived through, and it lives inside of me

(Pre-Chorus – pressure rising)
Don’t tell me that I’ll “get there” if I’m patient
Don’t act like time can fix what left me vacant

(Chorus – bitter, heated honesty)
Stop saying it gets better — it didn’t work for me
You want a happy ending I can’t promise or believe
There’s no returning to the person I was forced to leave
Don’t dress it up as healing — there’s no cure for me

(Verse 2 – sharper, more bite)
I’m sick of all the phrases meant to shame the ones who break
As if we’re failures when the past is more than we can shake
You want a silver lining, wrap this agony in grace
But you weren’t there the nights I begged to crawl out of that place

Don’t tell me there’s a reason for the hell I made it through
As if the pain was meaningful — it stole more than it grew
Maybe there’s acceptance, but don’t call it victory
Some losses carve so deep they change your chemistry

(Pre-Chorus 2 – anger building)
Don’t tell me time will “heal me” if I let it
Some damage doesn’t fade — you just forget it

(Chorus – heavier delivery)
Stop saying it gets better — it didn’t work for me
You want a happy ending I can’t promise or believe
There’s no returning to the person I was forced to leave
Don’t dress it up as healing — there’s no cure for me


(Bridge – HEAVY BREAKDOWN / HARSH VOCALS)

(Screamed — explosive, fed-up honesty)

Don’t tell me who I “should” be now!
You weren’t there when I was breaking down!

Your comfort’s cheap — you never paid the cost!
You want the lesson, but ignore what I lost!

I won’t pretend the damage made me whole!
You can’t erase what’s carved into my soul!

( final scream for the breakdown)
Your hope can’t fix what’s rotting underneath!


(Final Chorus – clean, scarred, firm)
Stop saying it gets better — it’s not the truth for everyone
Some battles never end, they just get quieter when they’re done
There’s no returning to the person that I’ll never be
Don’t call surviving “healing” — there’s no cure for me

(Outro – quiet, low, resigned)
No cure for me
Just learning how to breath
