Flicker.

Verse 1

I wake up to another day,

Another battle I can't escape.

I wear a smile across my face,

While every scar remembers every mistake.

They tell me, "Just keep holding on,"

Like I haven't been for far too long.

My hands are shaking, but I won't show,

How much of me is letting go.

Pre-Chorus

And every night I ask the sky,

"How many times can I survive?"

But there's no answer in the dark,

Just a fading little spark.

Chorus

I pray to God I'm not the only one who feels the pain,

I pray I'm not the only warrior on the frame.

I don't know how much more I can handle,

'Cause I'm starting to flicker like a candle.

If someone could set me free,

I'd be grateful for eternity.

But I doubt no one's coming for me,

So I just have to let my fate be...

No one can hear my plea...

Just to be free...

Verse 2

I've built these walls with tired hands,

Brick by brick so no one understands.

I learned to laugh when I wanna cry,

Learned to say "I'm fine" when I'm barely alive.

I used to think that someone knew,

Someone would see what I was going through.

But silence has a way of making you

Believe there's nobody coming through.

Pre-Chorus

So I'll keep walking through the flame,

Even if I don't remember my name.

If this is where my story ends,

I wish I knew how it began.

Chorus

I pray to God I'm not the only one who feels the pain,

I pray I'm not the only warrior on the frame.

I don't know how much more I can handle,

'Cause I'm starting to flicker like a candle.

If someone could set me free,

I'd be grateful for eternity.

But I doubt no one's coming for me,

So I just have to let my fate be...

No one can hear my plea...

Just to be free...

Bridge

Maybe I'm not meant to be rescued,

Maybe nobody's coming through.

Maybe the chains around my wrists

Are ones I have to break myself.

I've been waiting for a savior

While my own hands learned to shake.

If nobody's coming for me,

Then maybe I'll escape.

Final Chorus

I pray to God I'm not the only one who feels the pain,

I pray I'm not the only warrior on the frame.

I don't know how much more I can handle,

But I won't let myself go out like a candle.

If someone could set me free,

I'd be grateful for eternity.

But if nobody's coming for me,

Then I'll have to change my fate.

No one could hear my plea...

So I'll scream until they do.

I don't need someone to save me...

I just need to make it through.

Outro

I'm still flickering...

But I'm still here.

I'm still flickering...

And I'm not disappearing.
