hajibo2239[Intro]
(Bright electric guitar riff, driving drums, synth pad underneath)
[Verse 1]
Sunrise paints the sky, another day to face
The walls they built so high, leaving little space
They told him who to be, drew the lines so tight
A script laid out for him, bathed in borrowed light
He tried to play the part, wear the mask they gave
But something deep inside, just refused to behave
[Pre-Chorus]
The weight begins to grow, a pressure deep inside
Nowhere left to run, nowhere left to hide
[Chorus]
What he thought he knew, it starts to fade away
The colors running true, beneath the light of day
He screams into the void, "This cage I won't accept!"
But the chains he forged himself, hold him in their debt
Never good enough! (Never good enough!)
Never strong enough! (Never strong enough!)
The Unforgiven... yeah!
[Verse 2]
The mirror shows a face, etched with doubt and strain
Trying to erase, the marks of silent pain
He fights the current hard, pushes 'gainst the stream
Chasing some reward, lost inside a dream
The whispers in his ear, tell him he's alone
The very things he feared, have turned his heart to stone
[Pre-Chorus]
The battle rages on, inside his weary mind
The innocence is gone, that he could never find
[Chorus]
What he thought he knew, it starts to fade away
The colors running true, beneath the light of day
He screams into the void, "This cage I won't accept!"
But the chains he forged himself, hold him in their debt
Never good enough! (Never good enough!)
Never strong enough! (Never strong enough!)
The Unforgiven... yeah!
[Bridge]
(Drums build, guitars layer, vocals become more layered and insistent)
Can he break the mold? Can he truly be free?
Or is this story told, for all eternity?
Is the key he holds, just rusted shut with time?
Locked inside the walls, of his self-made design?
[Guitar Solo]
(Energetic, melodic guitar solo over driving pop-rock b**t)
[Chorus]
What he thought he knew, it starts to fade away
The colors running true, beneath the light of day
He screams into the void, "This cage I won't accept!"
But the chains he forged himself, hold him in their debt
Never good enough! (Never good enough!)
Never strong enough! (Never strong enough!)
The Unforgiven... yeah!
(Chorus repeats with stronger backing vocals and heavier drum fills)
[Outro]
(Vocals ad-lib over fading instrumentation: "Never good enough... Never strong enough...")
(Music fades out with final guitar chord and synth pad)
