[Verse 1 - muted electric guitar, soft and uneasy] A glance across the room and I already know That look, that pause, that smile - it’s for show They’re talking low, I swear I heard my name Everything they do becomes part of my shame
[Pre-Chorus - bass joins, muted electic guitar, tension building] I’ve built a whole trial inside my head Convicted by the words they never said I’m reading every silence like a sign Drawing all the wrong lines
[Chorus - full punk, urgent] Interpretations, hallucinations I’m drowning in a story I wrote alone Every conversation, every hesitation Becomes the evidence I use against my own It’s all in my head, it’s all in my head But it feels so real, it feels so real instead
[Verse 2 - same intimate feel] She didn’t wave, he walked the other way I replay it till the colors just fade away A hundred versions of what could have been All of them hinting me as the problem again
[Pre-Chorus 2] The jury’s in, I’ve made up every mind I’ve sentenced every face I’m left behind I’m prosecutor, judge, and on the stand Holding evidence I don’t understand
[Chorus 2] Interpretations, hallucinations I’ve put them all on trial in my mind Every conversation, every hesitation Is exhibit A in a case of my design It’s all their fault, it’s all their fault… …isn’t it? It’s all their fault… …right?
[Bridge - stripped back, just voice and muted guitar] So I walked up, I finally said the words Braced myself for everything I’d heard But she just smiled and said “I didn’t think-” And the whole thing fell apart before I could blink No one was watching. No one held a grudge. The only court in session… was the one I judged.
[Final Chorus - [full band, resolved] Interpretations, hallucinations I built my prison out of borrowed fears Every hesitation, every short conversation Wasn’t always what it appears Checked what’s real, It wasn’t real I really just let the spiral steal What was right in front of me Interpretations, hallucinations
[Outro - soft, almost a whisper] Not everything means what I thought it did Sometimes silence is just… silence --- Shhhhhhhhhhhh
