I packed my bags and left my name
Chased a dream that felt so fake
These lights don't warm, they only blind
I lost my spark, I lost my mind
I wear this mask so I can cry
No voice, just silence passing by
The worst of them share blood with me
And still, I'm gasping just to breathe
This city isn't mine
These people never see
The light that used to shine
Is gone inside of me
I'm tired, I'm fading out
Can't find a place to be
This crowd just leaves me cold
And I'm not who I used to be
The mirror doesn't know my face
My joy erased without a trace
Their smiles are sharp, their words are sweet
But nothing here feels real to me
No song escapes my lips today
Just echoes of the pain I hide
I hide behind this empty stage
And hope that something comes alive
This city isn't mine
These hearts don't beat for me
I walk these roads alone
Still longing to feel free
My eyes don't shine like fire
They flicker quietly
I don't belong right here
With people I can't reach
