DON'T TURN OUT THE LIGHTS 🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏

fallen and zombie

[Verse]
Daughter of dusk silent queen of the sand
Whispers like wind through a hollowed hand
The jackals howl your hymn to the night
Stars collapse beneath your sight

[Prechorus]
Shadows bending folding breaking
Are you giving or are you taking

[Chorus]
Nephthys where do you go
Veil of smoke tides that flow
Nephthys keeper of ash
Darkened wings silent crash

[Verse 2]
Sister to power unseen in the glare
Buried secrets in your vacant stare
The crescent wanes your shroud of black
Life fades forward no turning back

[Bridge]
Are you death are you life are you both in disguise
Guiding lost souls under cold desert skies
Do you mourn do you laugh as the worlds unwind
Nephthys tell me what you hide

[Chorus]
Nephthys where do you go
Veil of smoke tides that flow
Nephthys keeper of ash
Darkened wings silent crash

Shadow of Nephthys

When I wake up, I don’t wanna
Face the mirror, I'm a goner
Fake my cool, my chest gets hotter
It burns like soda in my veins
Missed that moment, lost that dollar
Scuffed up ego, hot on the collar
Buzzin’ head, where's the gain?
Nobody’s driving me sane

You talk slick, I can’t stand it
Go ahead, tear your bandage
You just want to drag my name
While I cave in, you play savage
God, I hate it — but I manage
You make me sort of enjoy the pain

I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Wake up feelin’ like a fake, oh
I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Wake up - next to my mistakes, no
I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Lose my place or lose my grip
I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Wake up - just to exist

Keep on loopin’, thoughts keep shootin’
Half alive and half rebootin’
Hold my breath like it’s a stunt
Play that role and keep disputin’
Truth’s diluted, mind’s polluted
Choke me gently, call it blunt

You're so proud, I can’t mute it
Tear me down and refute it
You make me want to burn places I've seen
But I still stay, barely rooted
Freaking out, wired, deluded
You make me wanna claw through my screen

I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Wake up feelin’ like a fraud, oh
I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Wake up prayin’ - oh my god, no
I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Keep losing sleep I can’t recall
I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Keep being your light in the hall

Told myself that it gets better
But I’m still taped up with tether
Every day I come undone
Take my face off, switch the weather
If I break, well, call it clever
Say I ran — but I never run

I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Wake up stitched into a mask, oh
I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Rehearse answers, you never ask, no
I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Chase the lines that they made bleed
I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna
Wake up just to not succeed
