In the silence of my room I feel the weight of days
Lost in a fog where the light seems to fade
I put on a smile but inside it's a fight
Hoping for a spark yearning for the light
I'm numb to the world can't find my way
Searching for meaning in a haze of gray
In the echoes of my heart there's a silent plea
For a change for a break for a moment to be free (to be free)
In the glow of the screen I find a fleeting escape
Playing games to distract from the heartache I can't shake
In the virtual worlds I can be someone else
But when the game is over it's just me and myself
I'm numb to the world can't find my way
Searching for meaning in a haze of gray
In the echoes of my heart there's a silent plea
For a change for a break for a moment to be free (to be free)
In the glow of the screen I find a fleeting escape
Playing games to distract from the heartache I can't shake
In the virtual worlds I can be someone else
But when the game is over it's just me and myself
As the screen fades to black echoes linger on
Moments of escape now a memory gone
In the silence of my room I confront what's real
Yearning for freedom to heal and to feel
