Lyrics
[Musical Intro]
[Deep, resonant gutair chords set a somber tone, joined by a haunting melody. The sound of a distant, echoing chime creates an eerie atmosphere.]
[Record Scratches]
[Verse 1:]
I walk these halls, I know so well,
Yet something's wrong, a broken spell,
Faces pass, they look right through,
Why can't they see? I have no clue.
[Pre-Chorus:]
I scream, I shout, but there's no sound,
A silent cry in darkness drowned,
My home, my life, slipping away,
Invisible, I'm forced to stay.
[Chorus:]
Why can't they see me?
I'm right here, so near,
In every shadow, every tear,
Why can't they hear me?
My silent plea,
Boxing up my life, setting me free.
[Instrumental Break melody]
[Record Scratches]
[Verse 2:]
They pack my things, piece by piece,
Memories fade, won't they cease,
Pictures, books, and clothes I've worn,
Why am I here? So lost, forlorn.
[Pre-Chorus:]
I reach, I touch, but feel no skin,
A ghost in time, where to begin?
My heart still beats, or so it seems,
Trapped between reality and dreams.
[Chorus:]
Why can't they see me?
I'm right here, so near,
In every shadow, every tear,
Why can't they hear me?
My silent plea,
Boxing up my life, setting me free.
[Rap Verse: shouted] They're boxing my life, erasing my past,
I'm screaming in silence, how long can this last?
I reach out in anger, but there's no one to feel,
A ghost in the mirror, is this even real?
My heart's still beating, in this empty space,
Trapped in the shadows, a forgotten face.
Memories fading, like dust in the wind,
Caught in this limbo, where do I begin?
Anger builds up, a storm in my chest,
Why can't they see me? I can't find no rest.
[Bridge Instrumental with Record Scratches]
[Bridge:Continued]
Anger rises, cold and sharp,
Why this fate, this cruel remark,
My voice a whisper, lost and thin,
Haunted by the life I've been.
[Chorus:]
Why can't they see me?
I'm right here, so near,
In every shadow, every tear,
Why can't they hear me?
My silent plea,
Boxing up my life, setting me free.
[Outro:]
I fade away, a final sigh,
A ghostly tear, a last goodbye,
In shadows deep, where I remain,
An echo lost, in endless pain.
[Chorus: shouted fade out]
Why can't they see me?
I'm right here, so near,
In every shadow, every tear,
Why can't they hear me?
My silent plea,
Boxing up my life, setting me free.
