Chaos In My Mind

Shattered Silence

I feel your heart through the cracks in my skin,
But I keep my distance, too afraid, always been.
Dancing on glass, it’s breaking beneath,
I know what you need, but can’t give you peace.

You light the fire, but I’m stuck in the cold,
Trapped in my fears, and losing control.
You’re reaching for something that I can’t be,
And I hate that you’re breaking because of me.

(Chorus):
Behind closed doors, we tear at the seams,
We’re chasing a high that lives in our dreams.
You’re screaming for truth, I’m bleeding out lies,
I’m burning inside but dead in your eyes.
Behind closed doors, we’re drowning in doubt,
I’m holding you close while I’m shutting you out.

You wear the scars of the promises made,
But I’m just a shadow that’s starting to fade.
I told you from the start, I can’t commit,
But here we are, still lost in all of it.

You want forever, I can’t even stay,
We’re stuck in a game, but we both know we’ll play.
You deserve more, but I keep you chained,
In a heart that’s fractured, bleeding, stained.

(Chorus):
Behind closed doors, we tear at the seams,
We’re chasing a high that lives in our dreams.
You’re screaming for truth, I’m bleeding out lies,
I’m burning inside but dead in your eyes.
Behind closed doors, we’re drowning in doubt,
I’m holding you close while I’m shutting you out.

(Bridge):
We’re fighting for something that’s already gone,
Holding the pieces but nothing feels strong.
You can’t keep fixing what I let break,
I’m losing the battle that I shouldn’t take.

(Chorus):
Behind closed doors, we tear at the seams,
We’re chasing a high that lives in our dreams.
You’re screaming for truth, I’m bleeding out lies,
I’m burning inside but dead in your eyes.
Behind closed doors, we’re drowning in doubt,
I’m holding you close while I’m shutting you out.

(Outro):
Shutting you out...
But I’m holding you close...
Shutting you out...
While I lose what matters most
