forest dirge
hey gus i dreamed to make a song and i worte the lyrics of the song and i would be happy for tips or feedback
Verse 1
The room is quiet but my head’s too loud
Every whisper pulls me further down
I’m falling slowly through a darkened hole
Trying hard not to lose my soul
Words used to get stuck, trapped in my throat
Afraid to speak, afraid to be known
Pre-Chorus
When I fall I always see the light
Shining somewhere far above
But every time I try to reach it
My hands are never close enough
Chorus
I’m falling in a dark hole
And the light is gone
Voices telling me
I don’t belong
When I fall I see the light
But I can’t reach it at all
So I keep screaming in the silence
While I’m watching myself fall
Verse 2
So I step outside into the cold night air
Just me and thoughts I cannot share
A cigarette between my shaking hands
Watching smoke curl, I almost see the light
I used to stumble on every word I said
Afraid to let them out, trapped in my head
Chorus
I’m falling in a dark hole
And the light is gone
Voices telling me
I don’t belong
When I fall I see the light
But I can’t reach it at all
So I keep screaming in the silence
While I’m watching myself fall
Bridge
I’m screaming but nobody hears a sound
While I keep falling deeper down
The noise inside is way too loud
I see the light… but I can’t reach it now
Final Chorus
I’m falling in a dark hole
But the light’s not gone
Even when the voices say
I don’t belong
When I fall I see the light
Somewhere through it all
Maybe one day I’ll reach it
Before I hit the fall
