🎧 Intro
(Soft piano, distant echoes)
Failure… failure… not enough…
Not enough… not enough…
🖤 Verse 1
Woke up to another silent morning
Sunlight doesn’t hit the same
Empty walls don’t ask me questions
But they still whisper my name
Career fell like shattered glass
Dreams scattered on the floor
She said she needed someone stronger
Closed the heart, locked the door
Family looking at me different
Like I’m something they don’t know
Every dinner table silence
Cuts deeper than they show
🌫 Pre-Chorus
Every word they throw at me
Turns into a scar
“Failure” plays on repeat
Like a broken guitar
I try to drown it out
But it’s louder every day
When the mirror says I’m worthless
I don’t know what to say
🔥 Chorus
If I’m a failure, let me fade away
I’m tired of fighting yesterday
Every shadow knows my name
Every whisper sounds the same
I’m exhausted from this war inside
Nowhere left for me to hide
If this is all I’ll ever be
Tell me what’s the point of me?
🌑 Verse 2
Stopped picking up my phone now
Let it ring into the night
I walk alone through empty streets
Neon bleeding into light
People stare like they can see it
Like I wear my shame out loud
Discrimination like a sentence
Buried underneath the crowd
I used to have a fire burning
Now it’s barely just a spark
Feels like I’m a ghost still breathing
Living in the dark
🌊 Pre-Chorus 2
There’s a voice that says “Just give up”
Says I’ll never win
Another whispers softly
“You’re stronger than you’ve been”
But the louder one is crueler
And it screams inside my brain
Telling me I’m nothing
Just a synonym for pain
🔥 Chorus
If I’m a failure, let me fade away
I’m tired of fighting yesterday
Every shadow knows my name
Every whisper sounds the same
I’m exhausted from this war inside
Nowhere left for me to hide
If this is all I’ll ever be
Tell me what’s the point of me?
🌊 Bridge (Soft → Build)
I’m standing on the edge of breaking
One more push, I might fall through
All the words they said about me
Start to feel like they are true
But somewhere deep beneath the noise
A heartbeat still remains
Even in the darkest places
There’s resistance in the pain
Maybe I’m not what they told me
Maybe I’m more than their lies
Maybe rock bottom’s just the ground
Before you learn to rise
🔥 Final Chorus (Stronger, Hope Emerging)
I’m not a failure, I won’t fade away
I’m more than what they say
Every scar that carved my name
Built a fire from the flame
I was drowning in the doubt
Now I’m breathing, breaking out
If this is all I’ve had to be
Then watch what I will be
🎧 Outro (Soft Piano Returns)
Failure… fades away…
Not enough… not today…
(Whisper)
Maybe I’m not done yet.
