[Intro – soft humming, reverb-heavy]
Mmm… yeah…
Cold nights, can’t close my eyes…
[Hook – melodic rap/singing]
Cold nights, I can’t find no peace
Demons in my head, they won’t let me breathe
I been lost, tryna fight my grief
But the pain runs deep and it cuts like teeth
Cold nights, yeah, I feel so alone
Even in a crowd, I’m on my own
I been searchin’ for a place called home
But the road I’m on just turns to stone
[Verse 1 – melodic rap]
Poppin’ pills, I just wanna escape
Every memory burns, I can’t erase
I been facin’ all my fears in the dark
With a broken soul and a shattered heart
Phone lights up, but I don’t reply
No one understands, they don’t see inside
Smiles on my face, it’s a thin disguise
I been breakin’ down under midnight skies
[Bridge – soft layered vocals]
Oooh, I don’t wanna feel this way
Oooh, another wasted day
The silence colder than the rain
But I can’t wash away the pain
[Hook – repeat with more emotion]
Cold nights, I can’t find no peace
Demons in my head, they won’t let me breathe
I been lost, tryna fight my grief
But the pain runs deep and it cuts like teeth
Cold nights, yeah, I feel so alone
Even in a crowd, I’m on my own
I been searchin’ for a place called home
But the road I’m on just turns to stone
[Outro – whispered with echo FX]
Cold nights…
Still fightin’ for the light…
