Regardless, I hope you enjoy!! <33 Title: Inside These Walls Lyrics by @malrii Cover by @EchoInTheStorm Here are the lyrics!! Vs. 1 She used to dance in the kitchen light Bare feet spinning through the night Laughed too loud, dreamed too big She lit up rooms just by walking in Pre ch. Her voice was drowned by their neglect So she became what they'd forget Bit her tongue and closed the door Till she wasn't laughing anymore [Chorus] Inside these walls Died a girl Who was happy as could be Tamed her spark Till it faded silently They never knew What they crushed When they called her too much Now she smiles just to appease But she forgot who she used to be Vs. 2 She used to sing like the sky could hear With star-bound eyes, nothing to fear Now she watches, soft and small Afraid to take up any space at all Pre ch. Her voice was drowned in their neglect So she became what they'd forget Bit her tongue and closed the door Till she wasn't laughing anymore Ch. Inside these walls Died a girl Who was happy as could be Tamed her spark Till it faded silently They never knew What they crushed When they called her too much Now she smiles just to appease But she forgot who she used to be Bridge: There’s a shadow deep inside Where light and darkness still collide A quiet fight she holds within Between who was and who could've been End ch. Inside these walls Died a girl Who wasn’t seen in this world A quiet storm beneath her skin Where endings blur and start again If you listen through the gray You’ll hear the parts she's yet to say She’s more than what they made her be Even if she’s lost who she used to be
