stranger

I walk in silence, faceless, erased, A shadow in a world that calls me a lie. I speak their words, wear their chains, Swallow my screams just to survive. Their eyes pierce through me, hollow and cold, Measuring my worth in whispered prayers. But I am not one of them, never was, Just a ghost in borrowed skin. I kneel when I must, I bow when I should, But inside, I am already gone. Every step I take is a wound left open, Every breath is borrowed time. If they knew what I was, what I feel, Would they tear me apart, stone by stone? Or would they turn away like they always do, Letting silence be my grave? I don’t belong, I never have, A stranger in the only home I’ve known. They speak of love with bloodstained hands, And I am just a name they’ll never learn. I suffocate inside their world, Wearing faith like a noose around my throat. If I run, if I scream, if I disappear, Would the sky even whisper my name? I have prayed for freedom, begged for air, But every road leads me back to this hell. Trapped in a life I never chose, Walking among ghosts who call themselves alive. I smile like I’m meant to, I play my role, A silent actor in a play I never wrote. But the mask is slipping, the cracks are showing, And soon, they’ll see the nothing I’ve become. I don’t belong, I never will, A prisoner of a story I was forced to tell. They look at me, but they don’t see, I am already gone, already lost. And if I leave, if I fade, Would the stars remember I was here? Or would I be just another shadow, Swallowed by the dark?

[Verse] I'm walking tightropes made of threads The echoes scream inside my head I paint the sky with quiet sighs But no one hears a heart that cries [Verse 2] I'm not a puzzle meant to complete The missing pieces taste defeat Neglection sticks its jagged nails In every corner where hope fails [Chorus] They think my truth's a fleeting phase But shadows linger Fill my days I’m not the storm that craves attention I’m the silence Lost in suspension [Verse 3] I stitched my wounds with borrowed time But the clock is cruel Its hands don’t rhyme I’m not searching for the world's correction I’m just unraveling this neglection [Bridge] The stars don’t burn as bright no more They shy away from life’s encore If I disappear Let this remind A shadow chased is left behind [Chorus] They think my truth's a fleeting phase But shadows linger Fill my days I’m not the storm that craves attention I’m the silence Lost in suspension

[Verse] I’m walking shadows under skies of grey Can’t shake this feeling it won’t go away The silence louder than the words I need Growing through cracks where my heart used to bleed [Chorus] I don’t plan on staying I’m a fleeting flame Trying to tell the truth but it sounds the same Sorry for the weight of these words of mine They cut through the dark never draw a line [Verse 2] They judge the book by the pages they can’t see Like mirrors hold a version that isn’t really me Neglection trails me like a ghost in the air I shout for connection but no one is there [Bridge] What if the stars never meant to glow What if this wilderness is all I know Speaking out loud but my throat is raw Sorry I’m broken sorry I saw [Chorus] I don’t plan on staying I’m a fleeting flame Trying to tell the truth but it sounds the same Sorry for the weight of these words of mine They cut through the dark never draw a line [Outro] This isn’t for attention it’s just who I’ve been I’d give up this ache if it’d let me win But the world spins cold and I fall behind A ghost in the corner of my own mind

[Verse] Caught in the web am I fly or spider now Textin on my phone while I"m chasing shadows Mind is a jungle tangling my senses Perceptions twisted reality immense is [Chorus] Impressions pressing fast messes messing slow Trying to decipher the code of what I know Brainrot got me spinning whispers in my ear All the voices talking but there’s nothing clear [Verse 2] Pmo on the down low secrets in my head Can"t differentiate the dream from the dead Typing talking nothing sticking in the frame Lost in thought and losing that’s the name of the game [Bridge] Ts facing down with a crack in the mirror The more I look the less it becomes clearer Swimming through dimensions no shore to hold Tangled in my thoughts feel the numbness take control [Chorus] Impressions pressing fast messes messing slow Trying to decipher the code of what I know Brainrot got me spinning whispers in my ear All the voices talking but there’s nothing clear [Verse 3] Icl dih imagine levels ticking down Swimming in confusion like I’ll never drown Realms overlapping lines smudged in my mind Every thought unraveling ‘til they"re all entwined

[Verse] Tried to hard, I had to fall Universe against me, hear the call Life"s in disarray, cards in a brawl Not my script, this ain"t my stall [Chorus] Tried so hard, but it’s all a game Universe conspiring, what a shame Falling into place, feeling the pain Everything"s a blur, nothing’s the same [Verse 2] Riding these waves, caught in the seam Dreams shatter quick, this ain"t no dream Universe laughs while I chase the beam Collapsing under, hearing the scream [Chorus] Tried so hard, but it’s all a game Universe conspiring, what a shame Falling into place, feeling the pain Everything"s a blur, nothing’s the same [Bridge] Galaxy"s whisper, conspiracies fly Plans all evaporate into the sky Stumbling through, but why even try? Universe’s grip, truth"s a lie [Chorus] Tried so hard, but it’s all a game Universe conspiring, what a shame Falling into place, feeling the pain Everything"s a blur, nothing’s the same

[Verse] Real estate license in his hand Winter in Bhilwara ain"t so bland New friends made it"s all so grand Wow super excited like a marching band [Verse 2] He feels at home Pakka na snow Well done sir watch the cold wind blow Outside down the ice will grow Broken dreams but he won"t let go [Chorus] Broken broken broken broken He keeps climbing he keeps hoping Even with the struggles he"s coping Winter"s chill but his heart"s open [Verse 3] Dreams wrapped up in icy chains Sunshine peeks through window panes New start from old remains In Bhilwara he breaks the chains [Bridge] Chilly nights with new mates Building futures closing gates Life"s a dance in frosty states Happiness waits it never abates [Chorus] Broken broken broken broken He keeps climbing he keeps hoping Even with the struggles he"s coping Winter"s chill but his heart"s open

I’m standing at the edge, just watching the sky, Dreams in my pocket, but they’re wearing thin, why? Took all the chances, some flew, some fell, I guess I’ll count the scars that I won’t ever tell. I spent too long waiting, thought it would all click, But life’s a puzzle that don’t fit with tricks. I asked for answers, but they just left me here, Staring at the road, filled with smoke and fear. Oh, I’ve been running with my eyes closed tight, But the echoes in the rearview call me through the night. All the places I’ve been, all the things I’ve done, Am I who I am, or just a race I’ve won? The clock’s been ticking, like it’s counting me out, I’m fighting for a future, but I’m lost in doubt. Made a million choices, thought I knew what’s right, Now I’m stuck in the middle, with no end in sight. I wear my mistakes like they’re medals on my chest, Like some twisted badge for every half-assed quest. I’m not the hero, but I’m not the fool, I’ve been learning, but I’m breaking all the rules. Oh, I’ve been running with my eyes closed tight, But the echoes in the rearview call me through the night. All the places I’ve been, all the things I’ve done, Am I who I am, or just a race I’ve won? I’m not afraid to fail, but I don’t know how to win, I’m running in circles, but I’m starting to spin. The future’s a mystery, the past’s just a game, I’m trying to break free, but I’m still feeling the same. Oh, I’ve been running with my eyes closed tight, But the echoes in the rearview call me through the night. All the places I’ve been, all the things I’ve done, Am I who I am, or just a race I’ve won? So here’s to the road I’ll never forget, To the hopes that burn and the things I regret. I’ll keep moving forward, but I’ll never outrun, The echoes in the rearview—they’re never gone.
