[Verse 1]
He wakes me in silence
No footsteps, no breath
Just a weight in my chest
Like a memory of death
He knows where I’m weakest
He’s older than pain
Not loud, not violent
Just poison in the rain
[Pre-Chorus]
I called him by name once
Thought that might set me free
But he smiled in the darkness
And whispered: „You are me“
[Chorus]
Demon – I see you!
You don’t own me!
You won’t silence
the fire in me!
[Verse 2]
He follows my shadow
Feeds on my doubt
Every word I swallow
He turns inside out
But I keep walking
Don’t run, don’t kneel
He can’t stop the rhythm
Of a heart that feels real
[Chorus]
Demon – I see you!
You don’t own me!
You won’t silence
the fire in me!
[Bridge – spoken/shouted]
I’ve danced with your silence
Learned not to plead
You’re the voice in the dark
That taught me to breathe
[Final Chorus – screamed]
You won’t define me!
You won’t break me!
Let it listen –
As I rise to my feet!
[Outro – fading but defiant]
I won’t banish the fear
I’ll give it a seat
Let it listen in stillness
While I rise to my feet
