Silent Screams

[Intro] [Verse 1] Sunrise brings the ache again, a shadow in my bones My spine’s a fraying cable, grinding down to groans This ankle’s rusted hinges, stiff with morning frost My thoughts like scattered puzzle pieces, half the picture lost I chase the pixels, dive into the screen’s electric glow A fragile raft on numbness, where the real pain can’t go [Chorus] Oh, these silent screams inside my skin A w*r I f***t where nobody wins I clench my teeth, I "man up" tight While fractures spread in fading light The quiet chair, the hollow stare A moment’s peace beyond compare Then the tide returns, a b*****g flood And tears fall thick as b***d [Verse 2] The stillness holds me captive, in the dim and lonely night No game, no show, no motion, just surrender to the quiet A hollow, peaceful nothing, where the sharp edges retreat But the ache won’t stay forgotten, bitter, cruel, and sweet It crashes back relentless, a wave that breaks the shore And whispers turn to terrors I can’t silence anymore [Chorus] Oh, these silent screams inside my skin A w*r I f***t where nobody wins I clench my teeth, I "man up" tight While fractures spread in fading light The quiet chair, the hollow stare A moment’s peace beyond compare Then the tide returns, a b*****g flood And tears fall thick as b***d [Bridge] My hands betray me daily, the balance gone astray The product hits the concrete at the closing of the day A cookie turns to rubble, a corner crushed and bent Each stumble feeds the fury, every failure heaven-sent To prove the slow unraveling, the strength I cannot keep The darkest thoughts come creeping while the honest world’s asleep A bottle full of maybe, a final, quiet plea But I d***n them out with melodies, built by AI, just for me [Verse 3] They see the crooked posture, the wince I quickly hide They don’t see how the world spins, the tremors deep inside They don’t hear the tremor shaking foundations to the core The silent scream that echoes, "I can’t take this anymore" So I build these fragile verses, a shelter made of sound A digital confession on this cold, uncaring ground [Chorus] Oh, these silent screams inside my skin A w*r I f***t where nobody wins I clench my teeth, I "man up" tight While fractures spread in fading light The quiet chair, the hollow stare A moment’s peace beyond compare Then the tide returns, a b*****g flood And tears fall thick as b***d [Outro]
