What I See - Gothic Rock (Lyrics Video)

This one’s called What I See, of my reflection on how kindness can be twisted, hope can fade, and light can burn just as much as it heals.
It’s about carrying the weight of betrayal and transformation, and when the person you once were is gone, replaced by something unrecognizable.
It’s about being reshaped into something you never asked to be, carrying the pieces of who you were, knowing some of them won’t ever fit back together.

Gothic rock / emo rock — soft and fragile in the verses, then hitting hard in the chorus.

Created with raw emotion and layered instrumentals to capture the fragility of the verses and the intensity of the chorus.
This is a song for anyone who’s felt themselves change in the shadows of someone else’s making.

Let me know what you see when you hear it.

Lyrics:
I used to wander through the light...
With open eyes and hope so bright...
Thought I could heal the world I saw...
But shadows creep in depths below...
Tell me why the colors faded...
When I reached to touch the sky...
Show me why the dream betrayed...
And left me asking why...

What I see... what I see...
Is the monster that you made of me...
Broken wings and shattered grace...
Lost the soul behind this face...
What I see... what I see...
Is a ghost that haunts what’s left of me...
Torn apart and ripped to shreds...
Left to rot from where I've bled...

I tried to sing with gentle words...
But kindness only left me burned...
The light I chased just burned my skin...
And tore apart what lived within...
If good is weak and strong is cruel...
Then tell me why I played the fool...
I gave my heart and took the pain...
Now I wander the empty plains...

I watched the hope that turn to dust...
All my faith gave way to doubt...
If being kind just broke my soul...
Then I’ll wear the dark and call it whole...

What I see... what I see...
Is the monster that you made of me...
Broken wings and shattered grace...
Lost the soul behind this face...

What I see... what I see...
What I see... what I see...
What I see... what I see...
Is the monster that you made of me...
