Title: "Darker Than Before" [Verse 1] Woke up to the gray, it’s hanging in the sky Coffee’s cold again, but I don't even try Mirror shows a face I swear I’ve seen before But the eyes are strangers, and I don’t know me no more [Pre-Chorus] I trace the cracks along the wall Like maps that lead to nowhere at all [Chorus] I’m sinking slow, can’t find the floor Every light just shuts the door And I don’t cry like I did before Now it’s silence I’m dying for Breathing hurts, but not enough To call it pain or call it love It's just... darker than before [Verse 2] Clock ticks loud, like it’s mocking me Each second’s a ghost I don’t wanna see I dress up my wounds in words and rhyme But it’s just makeup over time [Pre-Chorus] I try to talk but nothing lands Just echoes slipping through my hands [Chorus] I’m sinking slow, can’t find the floor Every light just shuts the door And I don’t cry like I did before Now it’s silence I’m dying for Breathing hurts, but not enough To call it pain or call it love It's just... darker than before [Bridge] They say the night is always darkest near the dawn But what if dawn’s already gone? What if this is all there is— A fading pulse I won’t miss? [Final Chorus] I’m sinking slow, can’t find the floor Every step just adds one more And I don't hope like I did before Now even numb feels like a war Breathing hurts, but not enough To scream or beg or rise above It's just... Darker than before
