Blackout Sun
Morning drags its rusted chain
Across a skull that won’t feel pain
Mirror stares but nothing’s there
Just hollow eyes and borrowed air
Heartbeat steady, soul on mute
Living life in a heavy suit
Chorus
Blackout sun above my head
Burns no warmth, just paints me dead
Walking tall but sinking fast
Future’s gone, I’m stuck in past
Crowds move loud, I move slow
Every laugh an afterglow
Words come out like broken glass
Cutting nothing as they pass
Rage once lived behind my teeth
Now just dust beneath the grief
Chorus
Blackout sun above my head
Burns no warmth, just paints me dead
Walking tall but sinking fast
Future’s gone, I’m stuck in past
No scream left, no fight to wage
Just a body pacing a quiet cage
War inside with no front line
Enemy looks just like mine
Breakdown
Numb. and I can’t feel the fall
Numb. like I’m nothing at all
Final Chorus
Blackout sun above my head
Burns no warmth, just paints me dead
Still I move through ash and air
Waiting to remember care
If there’s a spark beneath this stone
It’s buried deep. and I walk alone.
