Shadows in my skin

Verse 1

I hear the voices screaming louder than my heartbeat,

Every mirror’s just a war I can’t seem to delete.

Smile like I’m bulletproof but cracking in the silence,

Every saint I try to be just crumbles into violence.

Pre-Chorus

I’m addicted to the chaos, yeah it keeps me breathing,

Broken halo on my head but I won’t stop bleeding.

Chorus

I’m alive but the shadows live under my skin,

Fighting battles I keep on losing again.

Can’t escape from the monster I’ve been,

But I’ll burn it down, burn it down,

Just to start again.

Verse 2

Chain-smoking memories, drowning in the static,

Every scar’s a story but the ending’s always tragic.

I run from the light ‘cause the dark feels safer,

But I’m choking on the truth like a suicidal savior.

Pre-Chorus

I’m addicted to the chaos, yeah it keeps me breathing,

Broken halo on my head but I won’t stop bleeding.

Chorus

I’m alive but the shadows live under my skin,

Fighting battles I keep on losing again.

Can’t escape from the monster I’ve been,

But I’ll burn it down, burn it down,

Just to start again.

Bridge (Rap/Spoken)

This is the fallout, welcome to the breakdown,

Every word I spit’s a bomb, watch it all break now.

They said I’d never change, I said I’d never fold,

But I’m a villain and a hero, both stories I’ve told.

Breakdown (Screamed)

Tear me apart, I was made for the pain,

A ghost in the mirror, just a face with no name!

Rip out my heart, let it bleed in the rain,

If I can’t be free—I’ll destroy these chains!

Final Chorus

I’m alive but the shadows live under my skin,

Fighting battles I keep on losing again.

Can’t escape from the monster I’ve been,

But I’ll burn it down, burn it down,

Just to start again.
