Verse 1:
Shadows in my mind, where the darkness reigns,
A storm inside, driving me insane.
Paranoia whispers, dark voices in my head,
Where even the strongest angels fear to tread.
Pre-Chorus:
With every ounce of strength, I'll shatter this wall,
Reclaiming my mind and soul once and for all.
I will fight to get free, from the wall that holds,
In the darkest times, a new hope and a story untold.
No more fear, no more fleeing, I'll stare back and it'll be freeing.
To the wall I say now, you will fail, I will prevail
Cause after this is over, it'll be you who will bow.
Verse 2:
Every darkness fought, feels like a battle won,
Fighting through the night, till I see the sun.
The mirror shows a stranger, but I know it's not me,
I'm lost in the chaos, screaming to be free.
Chorus:
I'm trapped, can't find my way out,
My own voice of doubt, I scream and I shout.
I'm losing control, but deep within, there's a fire in my soul.
Bridge:
The struggle's real, it's written in my scars,
Fighting through the pain, reaching for the stars.
Every tear, every fall, makes me stronger still,
Climbing out of darkness, bending to my will.
Chorus:
I'll break this wall, no matter what it takes,
Desperate to escape, from the echoes of my mistakes.
Past trauma haunts me, shadows in the night,
But I'll keep pushing through, till I see the light.
I face my past, head on and steadfast.
As the wall crumbles, I face the wreckage of my past,
Scars and shadows reveal the path at last.
Outro:
Darkness fades away, as I embrace the light,
No longer a prisoner, I won this fight.
With every breath, I feel alive,
In this newfound freedom, I will thrive.
A new road lies ahead, I'll walk it proudly, not feeling dead.
The wall is gone but the wreckage remains,
The control of my mind is mine to sustain.
I look back at the wall, I said that it would bow,
Now I'm the master, and it's crumbled down.
I turn around and walk a new road unbound..
