In the shadows, where I used to hide,
Fragments whisper of a different life,
My mind fractured, shattered like glass,
A waltz of voices, now it's a dance of strife.
This empty room where silence screams,
Each corner holding a different dream,
I wore the mask, while my truth decayed,
Each step was a gamble, a heart-deepest trade.
Now I face the mirror, oh how it torments.
Regrets, like echoes in my head,
Fading memories of the things I said,
A carousel spinning, never slows down,
In a world I built, I'm destined to drown.
I opened doors, but they locked me inside,
The light I chased turned to shadows that bide,
Fragments of laughter haunt me tonight,
Each smile was a mask, now lost in the fright.
The spiral pulls me back into despair.
