ERSorrow - Solitude 2

Lyrics: I walked away before they broke my core, Closed every door that led to war. The silence hit, then something changed, For the first time, my life felt unnamed. No one draining the blood I earned, No fake concern, no bridges burned. My mind is clear without their weight, No subtle hands rewriting fate. Peace is loud when chaos dies, Freedom cuts old parasite ties. I’d rather stand completely alone Than build my future on a borrowed throne. Solitude saved me from slow decay, From smiling faces that stripped me away. No chains disguised as love remain, No quiet sabotage, no hidden pain. I answer only to my breath, Not expectations dressed as depth. If this is lonely, let it be, This empty space rebuilt me. Yeah, some nights press against my chest, Thoughts don’t always let me rest. Sometimes I crave a voice nearby, Just proof I’m seen by living eyes. But you adapt, the ache grows thin, Strength begins where fear has been. What once felt like losing everyone Now feels like finally being one. Solitude saved me from slow decay, From smiling faces that stripped me away. No chains disguised as love remain, No quiet sabotage, no hidden pain. I answer only to my breath, Not expectations dressed as depth. If this is lonely, let it be, This empty space rebuilt me. I stopped begging to belong, Stopped calling damage "being strong", Alone is not the same as broke, It’s how I survived what others spoke. Solitude saved me from slow decay, From smiling faces that stripped me away. No chains disguised as love remain, No quiet sabotage, no hidden pain. I answer only to my breath, Not expectations dressed as depth. If this is lonely, let it be, This empty space rebuilt me. I didn’t disappear, I withdrew, And met a version of me that’s true. Not hardened... Just finally free... #solitude #2 #ersorrow #metalcore #emotional #bittersweet #cinematic
