Echoes of the Deep

I'm sinking slow, under this heavy tide No light ahead, nowhere left to hide The mirror's cracked, it won't reflect my name The shadows rise, and whisper I'm to blame Every breath feels like a lie I can't sustain I'm tethered to the echoes of my pain I'm falling deeper, no one hears my cries A silent scream beneath the blackened skies The walls are closing in, I'm fading fast Fighting demons I thought I left in the past I wear a smile like a fragile disguise But the weight beneath it darkens my skies I can't escape the voices in my mind They pull me down, and leave me paralyzed Every day's a battle, losing my own war Drowning in a sea I can't ignore I'm falling deeper, no one hears my cries A silent scream beneath the blackened skies The walls are closing in, I'm fading fast Fighting demons I thought I left in the past There's a fire in me, but the flames burn cold I'm searching for a way out of this hole The hands I reach for turn to smoke Is there a light, or am I just a ghost? I'm falling deeper, no one hears my cries A silent scream beneath the blackened skies The walls are closing in, I'm fading fast Fighting demons I thought I left in the past I'm sinking slow, and no one's by my side I'm just a shadow lost in the tide The hands I reach for turn to smoke Is there a light, or am I just a ghost? There's a fire in me, but the flames burn cold I'm searching for a way out of this hole
