Silent Battles

(Verse 1)
Every night he comes, no asking me,
I say no, I freeze, but he doesn’t see.
Paralyzed, trapped inside my skin,
A silent scream that never ends within.
I’m just a shadow, lost and torn,
A broken girl, so tired and worn.

(Verse 2)
His hands like chains, they hold me down,
I’m drowning slowly, can’t make a sound.
My heart’s in pieces, shattered and bruised,
In this dark place where I’m confused.
I try to run, but I can’t escape,
His grip is tight — it’s my worst mistake.

(Chorus)
I’m broken, I’m hurting, can’t make it stop,
His hands are heavy, and my world just drops.
I’m here but somewhere else, floating away,
Crying alone in the bathroom, trying to wash the pain.
The pain is sharp, it’s cold and deep,
The tears fall down while the world’s asleep.

(Verse 3)
I lay there frozen, out of my mind,
Watching myself, lost and confined.
No one hears the cries inside,
The battles fought where I’ve died.
He doesn’t see the damage done,
I’m bleeding slow, I’m coming undone.

(Verse 4)
In the mirror, I see a face,
A stranger there, a broken place.
I scrub my skin, try to wash away,
The memories that refuse to stay.
But every mark, every scar,
Tells the story of how far.

(Chorus)
I’m broken, I’m hurting, can’t make it stop,
His hands are heavy, and my world just drops.
I’m here but somewhere else, floating away,
Crying alone in the bathroom, trying to wash the pain.
The pain is sharp, it’s cold and deep,
The tears fall down while the world’s asleep.

(Bridge)
One day I hope to find the light,
To break these chains and win this fight.
To hear my voice and speak my truth,
To heal the wounds of stolen youth.
Till then I fight in silence here,
Holding on through every tear.

(Outro)
I’m still here, even through the tears,
Fighting the silence, facing my fears.
One day I’ll rise, one day I’ll be free,
But tonight, it’s just the pain and me.
