Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Curtains closed Daylight scratching at the window Phone on silent I can feel it buzzing in my bones Every smile on the screen Feels like teeth Feels like they're in on the joke Heart rate sprinting But my feet stay welded to the floorboards Froze [Pre-Chorus] Yeah I built these four walls Called them "safe " called it "home" But the dark keeps talking When I'm finally alone [Chorus] Scared to go outside 'Cause all those faces They burn my eyes I feel better in the dark 'Til the shadows start to crawl inside Whispers in my head again Saying "you ain't ever gonna win" I lock the world out Try to keep it all in But the whispers and the shadows Creep in under my skin [Verse 2] Sink in the mattress Ceiling fan spinning like a carousel Every thought Every flashback Is a movie that I know too well Tell myself "breathe" But my lungs keep filling up with doubt I am my own prison And the guard that never lets me out [Pre-Chorus] Yeah I swipe through their lives Filter-perfect Plastic grins But my hands start shaking So I shut it all down again [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] I don't wanna be this ghost in my bedroom Pacing in circles Tracing old wounds If I open that door Will it kill me Or finally thrill me? (thrill me, thrill me) [spoken Half-rapped] Is it safer in the silence Or buried by the noise? Am I hiding from the world Or just afraid of my own voice? [crescendo] If the dark is my armor Why's it cutting like glass? If I'm running from the future Why's it dragging up the past? [screamed vocals] Get out Get out of my head [Chorus]
Tags
Aggressive post-hardcore/metalcore in the Falling In Reverse lane: tense, stuttering riffs flipping between palm-muted chugs and theatrical arpeggios, half-time trap-infused breakdowns, glitchy vocal FX. Verses in a tight, paranoid pocket; choruses explode with wide guitars and layered gang vocals. Screamed ad-libs and rapid-fire rap sections over punchy drums, with a cinematic bridge that drops to eerie pads before a final, crushing slam. Male vocals.
