Back to the Pain

Silent streets, empty hearts, just ghosts in the dark

Echoes of a love I tried to spark

Swiped through the night, hoping for a spark

But all I found were shadows in the park

Fighting for a voice that won't be heard

Drowning in the silence of my own lost words

Tried to break through, tried to hold on tight

But every chance just fades into the night

It's a game I can't win, it's a battle I can't win

Lost in the ruins of my own disappointment

Back to the pain, I’m running again

Driving in the rain with these wounds that won’t mend

Heart in my hand, but it slips away

Back to the pain, where I stay today

Every message sent, a shot in the dark

Each rejection hit, leaving its mark

Memories of what I hoped we'd be

Now just echoes of a dream I can't free

Tried to reach out, but the silence remains

Fighting my feelings through all the pain

Falling harder, losing the fight

Caught in the struggle, drowning in the night

Back to the pain, I’m running again

Driving in the rain with these wounds that won’t mend

Heart in my hand, but it slips away

Back to the pain, where I stay today

(Screaming guitar, echoing despair and defiance)

So I drive on, with nothing to gain

Caught in the storm of my own shame

Fighting to break these chains of disdain

Back to the pain, back to the pain
