"MASK MADE OF STATIC"

Lyrics

(Soft piano... distant thunder... heartbeat...)
Yeah... You think you know me... Nah... You only met the version... that survived today...
VERSE 1
My head's a war zone wearing human skin, Every smile hides another place I've been. I joke about death like it's comedy night, 'Cause if I stop laughing... I'll drown in the fight.
Every little spark becomes gasoline, One wrong word... Now I'm somebody you've never seen. Didn't mean to let the monster breathe... But rage don't knock— It kicks the damn door off the hinges.
Switch... Like somebody flipped another page. One second calm... Next second locked inside a cage. I hear my own voice... Don't recognize the sound. Trying to hold the devil... While he's dragging me down.
I hate that I explode... Over nothing at all. Then spend all night Watching my own walls fall. I ain't proud... Never wanted this curse. Sometimes I feel Like my own mind comes first.
PRE-CHORUS
Don't mistake silence... For peace... Don't mistake jokes... For healing... Every sarcastic line Is another wound Still bleeding.
CHORUS
I'm wearing a mask made of static... Nobody hears the panic. Smile like everything's fine... While my head starts turning volcanic.
Laugh loud... Hide scars... Turn nightmares into punchlines. If darkness asks where I've been...
Tell it... "I'm already inside."
VERSE 2
Sarcasm... Yeah, that's armor made of steel. Humor black enough To hide the way I really feel.
People hear the joke... They never hear the scream. Never see the broken kid Still trapped inside the dream.
I keep everybody laughing While I'm sinking in the flood. Smile painted on my face... Hands covered in invisible blood.
They call me cold... But they don't understand. Sometimes freezing over Is the only way to stand.
Every apology Feels ten years late. Trying to outrun Everything I hate.
BUILD
Maybe... I'm not scared of monsters.
Maybe...
I'm scared... I'm becoming one.
(EDM riser... bass building...)
DROP / CHORUS
I'm wearing a mask made of static... Static... Static...
Broken signals... Automatic...
If I lose myself tonight... Don't let me disappear. 'Cause underneath the noise...
There's still somebody here.
VERSE 3 – THE GUARDIAN
Say what you want about me... I'll probably laugh it away.
Talk about someone I love...
Now everything changes.
I become the wall. The shield. The storm. The reason You think twice.
I'll bleed... Before I let my people Pay the price.
Family ain't blood... It's who stayed. Who never walked away When everything decayed.
I'd burn my own future To keep theirs alive. That's the only reason I've survived.
Call it reckless... Call it insane. I'd carry every scar... Every ounce of pain.
If you're my family...
You'll never fight alone.
Even if I have to Walk straight into hell... Just to bring you home.
