[Verse 1]
Mirrors flash their fangs, disdain in silver frames,
A ghost of myself, scars like burning flames.
Can’t bleach away the stains, etched beneath my skin,
Echoes of my name, where the darkness settles in.

[Pre-Chorus]
Everywhere I run, I’m trailed by my defeat,
Cursed to never measure up, forever incomplete.

[Chorus]
Teetering on the edge, sanity’s a fragile thread,
Spiraling to nowhere, a place where hope has fled.
Years of masquerades, pills can’t numb the pain,
Clinging to a memory, just to lose it once again.

[Verse 2]
Here I check the boxes, life’s cruel comedy,
Hats that hide the thorns, in my own tragedy.
Smiles and hollow dreams, love’s a shattered spree,
Masking the abyss, where my heart longs to be free.

[Bridge]
“Sorry,” spills like wine, from lips laced with regret,
Drowning in confessions, a whiskey-soaked vignette.
Backseat revelations, tears that blur the lines,
Embers of my name, where the darkness settles in!

[Chorus]
Teetering on the edge, sanity’s a fragile thread,
Spiraling to nowhere, a place where hope has fled.
Years of masquerades, pills can’t numb the pain,
Clinging to a memory, just to lose it once again.

(just to lose it once again)

[Outro (x2)]
Alone, the echoes fade, as the night gives way,
Apologies are empty, all I have to say.
Unloved and adrift, in this endless rift,
If life were mine to give, it’d be my final gift.
