White noise
In my blood
A silent voice
Before the flood
The floorboard creaks
My sanity leaks
Is someone there?
I'm in despair
I start to stare
At empty walls
As darkness calls
My spirit falls
My breath is short
A last resort
To stay afloat
A strangled note
White noise
In my blood
A silent voice
Before the flood
My heart beats fast
A shadow's cast
A violent drum
My soul is numb
My own mind
Is so unkind
It sets a trap
I can't unwrap
A simple thought
Becomes a knot
A simple sound
Cracks the ground
They say "just breathe," it's in your head
But my own head just wants me dead
This isn't living, it's a fight
Against the light
White noise
In my blood
A silent voice
Before the flood
I want to scream
A silent dream
My voice is gone
Can't carry on
A mirror shows
A face that knows
The stranger there
Is full of fear
It's killing me
And I can't flee
This skin, this bone
This broken home
White noise
In my blood
A silent voice
Before the flood
