Lost in Myself

Lost in Myself

 

Verse 1

I wear a smile like it's armor

But inside, I'm breaking apart

Every breath feels borrowed

Every heartbeat fights too hard

 

I chase the light but it fades

Like a dream I can't hold on to

I scream in silence every day

But no one hears the truth

 

Pre-Chorus

I’m not enough, I never was

My shadow’s louder than my voice

I try to feel, but I feel lost

Trapped inside my own noise

 

Chorus

I'm lost in myself, can't find the way

Falling deeper every day

I reach for peace, but it slips through

Like everything I thought I knew

I'm lost in myself, can't break free

Drowning in who I thought I'd be

Fighting a war no one can see

Between my soul and my ego's greed

 

Verse 2

I build walls out of doubt

And decorate them with shame

I try to love who I am

But I don’t even know my name

 

I’m chasing joy I can’t feel

Like a ghost in my own skin

I smile for the world

But I’m dying within

 

Pre-Chorus

I’m not enough, I never will

My heart is quiet, but never still

I fake the calm, I fake the grace

But I’m just running in place

 

Chorus

I'm lost in myself, can't find the way

Falling deeper every day

I reach for peace, but it slips through

Like everything I thought I knew

I'm lost in myself, can't break free

Drowning in who I thought I'd be

Fighting a war no one can see

Between my soul and my ego's greed

 

Bridge

I wish I could silence the voice

That tells me I’m nothing at all

I wish I could make a choice

To rise instead of fall

 

But I’m tangled in my own mind

A prisoner of my pride

I want to feel alive

But I’m too scared to try

 

Final Chorus

I'm lost in myself, but still I breathe

Searching for something to believe

Maybe one day I’ll find the key

To set my broken spirit free

I'm lost in myself, but not alone

Someday I’ll build a heart from stone

And learn to love the cracks I've shown

Even if I stand on my own
