[Verse 1]
The years alone taught me hunger with no mouth
Silence that roared, louder than a crowd
Loneliness an art form, sharpened, slow
A knife you over-polish, just to watch the bright glow
I lost my mind on purpose, found it by mistake
My mind took more than madness could ever take
Insane felt gentle, like static in the brain
But the crazy stuck sharp like a needle in the vein
Bright moments jagged, they tore more than pain
Truth flashed sudden, like a shot through the frame
It’s twisted, the unbearable part wasn’t the breaking
It was waking in a reality that felt like it was faking
Mistakin' survival for freedom, a thin disguise
Mistakin' the mirror for a window to the sky
Madness was a mask I could almost call home
But sense stripped me, left these bars carved in stone
I carved calendars on walls without looking back
Time folded inward, a collapse on a loop track
My eyes slammed shut, a curtain I could close
This shit exposed me, stripped me to the bone

[Chorus]
Intervals of sanity they cut like steel
Madness was a mercy, and the pain was never real
Every moment lucid is a wound I can't feel
I'd trade the truth for lunacy if the scars would only heal

[Verse 2]
Every thought ricocheted, echo chamber raw
Truth’s teeth sharper than the lies that I saw
I played chess with shadows, they never lost
Checkmate came cheap, but the clarity cost
Lonely like a sermon with no congregation
Sight burned hotter than a hallucination
Insane was a blanket, threadbare but mine
Sanity was the winter sendin chills down my spine
I mistook the silence for a sign of peace
But then my ears rang louder every time it ceased
Freedom was a fiction, survival was a loan
Edges made of broken glass and carved into this stone

[Pre-Chorus]
I wake up in a cell that nobody can see
Bars made out of dawn, walls built out of me
I thought I was escaping, but the mirror don't lie
Freedom’s just a story with a lock in disguise

[Chorus]
Intervals of sanity they cut like steel
Madness was a mercy and the pain was never real
Every moment lucid is a wound I can't feel
I’d trade the truth for lunacy if the scars would only heal

[Verse 3]
My silence was a riot, a crowd in my head
Voices like prophets, but the gospel was dead
I stitched my reality with threads that frayed
Every pattern unraveled, the more I prayed
Truth hit jagged, a fracture in the glass
Reflection was a stranger staring back when I passed
The craze gave rhythm, a beat I could ride
My mind was all static, all feedback and wide
Mistaking the hunger for a kind of release
But the feast was hollow, no rest, no peace
I wrote maps on the ceilings, roads with no end
Each line a reminder so I can’t pretend

[Bridge]
Is it mercy or a sentence when the mind comes clear?
Is it better to be broken if the pain disappears?
I don’t know what’s worse, the silence or the scream,
The cage that I wake to, or the cage in the dream.

[Chorus]
Intervals of sanity they cut like steel
Madness was a mercy and the pain was never real
Every moment lucid is a wound I can't feel
I’d trade the truth for lunacy if the scars would only heal
