[Verse 1]
With a hopeless heart and bloodshot eyes
The walls are closing in, this smile is my disguise
An anxious mind like a rising tide
Constantly drowning in a sea of endless lies
[Pre-Chorus]
What did I expect to find in the shadow of a better life
My choices left me paralyzed, it's time to face the truth
[Chorus]
I found myself trapped in this hell
Surrounded by empty words and tired excuses
I disguise myself 'til there's nothing left
Surrounded by еmpty words
[Verse 2]
These shackled hands bound by rightеous chains
I need to search my soul and try to rearrange
This wasted life, so consumed by shame
Constantly lashing out and taking zero blame
[Pre-Chorus]
What did I expect to find in the shadow of a better life
My choices left me paralyzed, it's time to face the truth
[Chorus]
I found myself trapped in this hell
Surrounded by empty words and tired excuses
I disguise myself 'til there's nothing left
Surrounded by empty words
[Bridge]
I never knew these empty words were haunting you
I never knew these empty words were haunting you
With every breath, I'm straying further from the truth
[Chorus]
I found myself trapped in this hell
Surrounded by empty words and tired excuses
I disguise myself 'til there's nothing left
Surrounded by empty words
(Empty words)
