Walking on shards

Piano/ Post metal

Verse 1
There's something inside I cannot name,
A weight, a pressure, a whisper.
The light above creates no shade.
It flickers, flickers, flickers.

It's hard to breathe around the pain,
To hide the tremor in my fingers.
Sometimes it feels like heavy chains.
The light just flickers, flickers.

Pre-Chorus
And when I try to close my eyes,
I feel the distance growing wide.

Chorus
A hollow cabin in my soul,
Where all the warmth used to remain.
A silly hope about tomorrow.
Tomorrow always feels the same.

Walking on shards, breathing in dust,
Something inside me is gone and forgotten.
With no hesitation it turned into rust,
With no explanation — it's rotten.

Verse 2
The taste of words dies on my tongue,
And nothing now that truly matters.
The night is cold, still very young.
The light above me flickers, flickers.

I have forgiven more than once,
But no relief with midnight whispers.
The light above me starts to dance,
It flickers, flickers, flickers.

Pre-Chorus
When every time I start again,
A little less of me remains.

Chorus
A hollow cabin in my soul,
Where all the warmth used to remain.
A silly hope about tomorrow.
Tomorrow always feels the same.

Walking on shards, breathing in dust,
Something inside me is gone and forgotten.
With no hesitation it turned into rust,
With no explanation — it's rotten.

Verse 3
Someone is tired of being strong,
Someone would never understand.
Someone could smile all along,
And that's the truth I couldn't stand.

I don't need someone to save me,
I don't need anything tonight.
It keeps flickering above me,
This dim and lonely yellow light.

Final Chorus
A hollow cabin in my soul,
Where all the warmth used to remain.
A silly hope about tomorrow.
Not every ending means the end.

I keep on walking, I keep breathing,
Even with pieces missing still.
Maybe the hardest part of healing
Is finding reasons to feel.

Walking on shards, breathing in dust,
Something inside me is gone and forgotten.
With no hesitation it turned into rust,
With no explanation — it's rotten.
