Ashes to ashes

Verse 1
I trace the cracks across my skin,
Every fracture speaks of where I’ve been.
Shadows whisper, calling me by name,
But silence cuts deeper than the pain.

Pre-Chorus
The night wraps me in its hollow arms,
A lullaby of ghosts and scars.

Chorus
Beneath the ashes, I still breathe,
Even if the fire burns inside of me.
A thousand wounds, a quiet scream,
Drowning slowly in a broken dream.

Verse 2
The mirror shows a stranger’s face,
Eyes like oceans, heavy with disgrace.
I try to fight, but the dark won’t leave,
It carves its stories into me.

Pre-Chorus
The night wraps me in its hollow arms,
A lullaby of ghosts and scars.

Chorus
Beneath the ashes, I still breathe,
Even if the fire burns inside of me.
A thousand wounds, a quiet scream,
Drowning slowly in a broken dream.

Bridge
Will I fade into the smoke,
Or rise from all the words I never spoke?
This sorrow is a crown I wear,
But I’m not sure if I’ll escape from here.

Final Chorus (softer, almost whispered)
Beneath the ashes, I still breathe,
But the fire takes the best of me.
A thousand wounds, a quiet scream,
Fading slowly in a broken dream.
