About
Driving distorted guitar riffs cut through raw emotional delivery, building tension with dynamic drums and atmospheric synth layers in this alternative rock track. Introspective lyrical depth explores non-conformist themes of self-destruction and rebirth, delivered with gritty authenticity reminiscent of underground angst. The structure erupts in a searing solo before the explosive final chorus, capturing pure, unfiltered rage.
Lyrics
Crawling through the shadows Skin stretched tight over bones Voices screaming silent
In this cage of my making Walls closing, breath escaping Every mirror cracks and lies Reflecting someone I despise Fists clenched against the tide Drowning in what I hide
Pressure building, veins on fire Can't hold back, no more liar
Break me open, let it bleed All the rage that I can't feed Screaming out, but no one sees Lost in chains of make-believe I'm done pretending, tear it down This hollow shell, I burn it now
Threads unraveling inside Puppets dancing on a knife World spins fast, I'm standing still Chasing ghosts up endless hills Memories like thorns embed Pull them out or stay half-dead
Heartbeat racing, edge of wire No more waiting, fuel the fire
Break me open, let it bleed All the rage that I can't feed Screaming out, but no one sees Lost in chains of make-believe I'm done pretending, tear it down This hollow shell, I burn it now
What if I shatter every piece? No more hiding, no release Rise from ashes, claim the fight In the wreckage, find the light
Break me open, let it bleed All the rage that I can't feed Screaming out, but no one sees Lost in chains of make-believe I'm done pretending, tear it down This hollow shell, I burn it now
Burn it now... Fade to nothing... Gone.
