They told me pain makes you strong
But I just feel... gone.
I counted stars ‘til they all fell
Each wish a lie I couldn’t tell
You said “someday,” I said “when?”
But someday never came again
Smiles like knives, applause for pain
You call it life — I call it chains
I danced inside a dying flame
Your silence put me in this frame
Every"how are you?" was fake
Every compliment — a stake
You loved the mask, ignored the bleed
You fed the lie, but I still need...
No exit, no dawn
Just echo of the strength now gone
No voice, no scream
Just floating in a half-dead dream
No exit, no grace
Just mirrors in a hollow place
I tried to fight, I tried to burn
But some don’t break — they never return
I spit the truth you never heard
Buried it deep beneath your words
You clapped for masks, you praised the show
But no one asked the girl below
You gave me rules, I wore the chains
Turned every nod into a stain
I bled in beats, I begged in bars
But no one listens past the scars
You said I’m soft — I said I’m done
This isn’t life, it’s just the run
A loop of lies, a scream on mute
A world that trades the truth for cute
No exit, no pride
I lost the war I fought inside
You’ll never know the price I paid
'Cause ghosts don’t speak — they just… fade.
