[Intro] Standing here with my eyes wide open But it feels like I’m fast asleep Staring at a promise broken Into secrets that I keep [Verse ] I want to wake, but I’m so far away Just another voice lost in the crowd Fading into the echo's decay Reaching for help that is never allowed [Pre-Chorus] I just want to feel more than what I feel right now Break through the ceiling, turn the volume down I want to forget every single worry and doubt And scream all the things I could never spit out [Chorus] I just want to feel alive But I feel dead inside Drowning deep in my own head Chasing ghosts of the words unsaid No, I don’t want to lose my mind In the echoes I left behind [Verse ] It hits me in waves, there is no escape Lying alone underneath the dark shade Running away from my childhood years The kids throwing stones and feeding my fears A shadow is looming behind the locked door The voices get louder, the anger will soar It warped my own mind till I started to break Leaving these nights with a lingering ache [Pre-Chorus] I just want to feel more than what I feel right now Break through the ceiling, turn the volume down I want to forget every single worry and doubt And scream all the things I could never spit out [Chorus] I just want to feel alive But I feel dead inside Drowning deep in my own head Chasing ghosts of the words unsaid No, I don’t want to lose my mind In the echoes I left behind [Verse] They Put hands on me behind closed doors Leaving me shaken down to my core Trying to forget all the damage they did Fighting the secrets I kept as a kid I'm learning to forgive, though the healing is slow I won't let this misery pull me below [Bridge] Silence is heavy, but the fire is bright I am tired of hiding away from the light Every stone that they threw built a wall in my way But I'm clearing the wreckage of my yesterday I won't let the echo define who I am | [Final Chorus] I just want to feel alive But I feel dead inside Drowning deep in my own head Chasing ghosts of the words unsaid No, I don’t want to lose my mind In the echoes I left behind [Outro] Standing here with my eyes wide open... No longer fast asleep The echoes are fading, the silence is broken No more secrets to keep I'm clearing out the gloomy days... Clearing them out.
