Silent Exit

[Intro] [Verse 1] Foggy days blend to static nights, Breath like concrete, can’t claw through the lights. Echoes laugh in the back of my skull, Clock ticks louder, the world’s turned dull. Shadows whisper, “Just let it ride,” But I’m chained to the wheel, no exit in sight. Weight on my chest like a debt unpaid, Smile’s a ghost—yeah, it’s starting to fade. [Chorus] D***n in the noise, let the static rise, Eyes on the floor, can’t stomach the skies. Every step’s quicksand, every breath’s a lie, But I’ll grin and wave as the fire dies. [Verse 2] Pavement cracks mirror the split in my brain, Nine-to-nine grind, just numbers and pain. Friends see a shell, think I’m “built to survive,” But the engine’s on fumes, barely alive. Scream in the mirror, the glass don’t break, Silent prayers to a god I don’t make. Gravity’s winning, my bones wanna fold, But I’ll wear the mask ‘til the story’s told. [Chorus] D***n in the noise, let the static rise, Eyes on the floor, can’t stomach the skies. Every step’s quicksand, every breath’s a lie, But I’ll grin and wave as the fire dies. [Bridge] Storm’s in my veins, but the outside’s calm, Fuse at the end, no alarm, no harm. Last chapter’s written in invisible ink, Heart’s a closed room—no one hears it sink. [Outro] *(A single gunshot echoes.)*
