More Shadowz

##Voice 1: WorldPatternz

## [Verse 1]

Started with giggles, colors bright and new

But something's shifting, can't tell what's true

Thoughts a-a-accelerating, can't slow them down

Smiles turn to worry, joy starts to drown

The walls ain't just breathing, they're cl-cl-closing in tight

What was beautiful now fills me with fright

Time stretching forever, seconds like days

Lost in my mind's ever-darkening maze

*(Background vocals: "darkening maze... darkening maze...")*

## [Hook]

I-I-I just wanna come back, find my way h-home

*(Background vocals: "find your way back")*

Trapped in my head and I'm f-f-feeling alone

This wasn't the jou-journey I signed up to take

*(Background vocals: "not what I wanted")*

How m-many hours until I awake? ★

## [Verse 2]

My heartbeat's pounding through my chest like drums

Anxiety rising as the dar-darkness comes ★

Thought I knew myself until these depths I saw

Inner demons circling, teeth and claw

Friends' faces morphing, can't recognize who's who

Their words sound si-sinister, though I know that's not true

Paranoia whispering lies in my ear

"They're laughing at you," is all that I hear

*(Background vocals: "all in your head... all in your head...")*

## [Verse 3]

Can't escape the lo-lo-loop of negative thought ★

Regretting decisions that can't be unfought

The ceiling is watching, ju-ju-judging my sins

As memory fragments spin like wind

I'm begging time to move fa-fa-faster somehow

Promising anything to end this right now

What was four hours feels like for-forty years ★

As I battle shadows and confront my fears

*(Background vocals: "shadows and fears... shadows and fears...")*

## [Bridge]

They say challenging trips can teach you the most

But right now I'm ha-ha-haunted by my personal ghosts

Desperately grounding, counting each breath

*(Background vocals: "just breathe... just breathe...")*

This psychological space feels like near-death

Hold on to s-something real, this will pass

Though eternity lives in each moment, alas

Remember the mantra: "Th-this isn't forever" ★

Through the storm of my mind, just hold it together

## [Hook]

I-I-I just wanna come back, find my way h-home

*(Background vocals: "find your way back")*

Trapped in my head and I'm fee-feeling alone

This wasn't the j-j-journey I signed up to take ★

*(Background vocals: "not what I wanted")*

How m-m-many hours until I awake?

## [Outro]

The light's still there somewhere beyond the dark clouds

Though my thoughts keep sc-scr-screaming, intense and loud

Maybe tomorrow I'll make sense of tonight ★

But now I'm just fighting to see any light

*(Background vocals: "see the light... see the light...")*

Next time I'll respect the pow-power they hold

These teachers aren't gentle when lessons unfold

Through terror and beauty, the m-m-m-mushroom reveals ★

The shadows within that daylight conceals

*(Background vocals: "shadows within... shadows within...")*
