Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Static whispers in my head, a broken record on repeat
Same damn thoughts, another day, another soul-crushing defeat
Sunlight streams, a cruel reminder of a world that keeps on spinning
While I'm stuck here, paralyzed, a broken machine within
(Chorus)
Drowning in a sea of grey, the colors drained from sight
Motivation's just a ghost, a flicker in the night
This weight upon my chest, a constant, crushing ache
Depression's icy grip, a prison I can't break
(Verse 2)
Mirror shows a stranger's face, hollow eyes and vacant stare
The spark that used to burn so bright, now lost in endless despair
The world outside, a distant call, a symphony unheard
Lost in the silence of my mind, every whispered word
Chorus)
Drowning in a sea of grey, the colors drained from sight
Motivation's just a ghost, a flicker in the night
This weight upon my chest, a constant, crushing ache
Depression's icy grip, a prison I can't break
(Bridge)
Is there a way out of this maze, a light beyond the fog?
Or am I destined to wander, a tethered, soulless dog?
A single ember flickers still, a tiny spark of fight
Can I fan it into flames, or fade away into the night?
(Chorus)
Drowning in a sea of grey, the colors drained from sight
Motivation's just a ghost, a flicker in the night
This weight upon my chest, a constant, crushing ache
Depression's icy grip, a prison I won't break
(Verse 3)
Scrolling feeds of perfect lives, a curated display
Laughter rings hollow in my ears, feels so far away
They dance and sing, oblivious, to the storm that rages here
Wishing I could feel the sun, instead of just the fear
(Chorus)
Drowning in a sea of grey, the colors drained from sight
Motivation's just a ghost, a flicker in the night
This weight upon my chest, a constant, crushing ache
Depression's icy grip, a prison I won't break
(Outro)
But maybe, just maybe, with a single, shaky breath
I can break these chains of doubt, and defy the grip of death
There's a fight within this broken shell, a flicker I won't deny
One step at a time, I'll rise above, even if I have to cry.
