dead inside but still breathing

“Dead Inside, Still Breathing” (Intro) Yeah… I been trying to find myself… But every road keeps leading back to the same place… (Hook) I’m fading away, Can you hear me now? I’m breaking apart, But I won’t say how. I’m stuck in this cycle, I can’t break free, Fighting my demons, Inside of me. (Verse 1) I got too many thoughts that I never say, Too many scars that I hide away, Everybody sees me laughing outside, They don’t see the storms that I fight inside. I been losing sleep, I been losing time, Trying to escape what’s inside my mind, I keep running from the person I became, But everywhere I go I still feel the same. I was looking for peace in the wrong things, Trying to cut the pain that my heart brings, Every high fades, every night ends, And I’m left alone with my thoughts again. (Hook) I’m dead inside but I’m still breathing, Lost my way but I’m still seeking, Something to save me from myself, ‘Cause I don’t even know me anymore. I gave my heart, I gave my trust, Turned into someone I never was, Now I’m fighting battles in the dark, Trying to find the missing parts. (Verse 2) I pushed away the ones who cared the most, Now I’m talking to memories like they’re ghosts, I had love but I couldn’t accept it, Too busy fighting demons I couldn’t mention. I hate that I’m stuck in this cycle again, Making the same mistakes I promised would end, I keep saying I’ll change, I’ll find my way, Then I wake up trapped in another day. Maybe I’m damaged, maybe I’m tired, Maybe I’m buried under everything I survived, But somewhere deep under all this pain, There’s still a piece of me that wants to change. So I’ll keep walking through the dark alone, Trying to find a place that feels like home, I lost myself somewhere along the way… But I’m still searching for me someday. (Verse 3) Yeah… Late nights… Same pain… Different day… (Hook) I’m fading away, I’m losing my name, I’m stuck in my head, I’m drowning in pain. I tried to escape, I tried to be okay, But the demons I fight, Never go away. I miss who I was, Before all the scars, Before I got lost, Chasing broken hearts. I’m calling for help, But nobody knows, I’m fighting a war, That I never show. (Verse 4) Cold nights, No sleep, Dark thoughts, Too deep. I hide pain, With a smile, Been lost, For a while. I gave love, Gave my all, Still felt, So small. I made mistakes, I can’t erase, I see my past, In every place. (Hook) I’m fading away, Can you hear me now? I’m breaking apart, But I won’t say how. I’m stuck in this cycle, I can’t break free, Fighting my demons, Inside of me. (Verse 5) I know that I’m hurt, I know that I’m changed, I know that I’m tired, Of feeling this way. I chased the numb, To silence my mind, But pain always waits, Right there every time. I lost some friends, I lost myself, Put all my feelings, High on a shelf. But deep in the dark, Under the pain, There’s still a part of me, Calling my name. (Outro) Maybe one day, I’ll find my way, Maybe these clouds, Will fade away. Until that time, I’ll keep holding on… Even when I feel like… Everything’s gone.
