Raindrops streak through the windowpane Blurring city lights in a veil of rain
Another day, another fight The weight on my chest crushing me tight
Words like daggers pierce my soul Leaving a wound that won't make it so whole
Gotta find a way to slowly cleanse this sin I've got enough to hate the world that this
Can bring The pressure builds a suffocating cage
Trapped in this darkness, turning every page Yearning for peace, a moment of grace
A temporary escape from this lonely space Numb the ache with whatever I find
A reckless distraction to leave the worries behind
Numb the ache with a bottle or a song Silence the voices that whisper all night long
Numb the ache with a stranger's touch A fleeting connection that loved, loved too
Much This numbing embrace is a dangerous game
But the only relief to ease the inner flame Laughter erupts, hollow and fake
A mask I wear for the world's sake Smiling hides the storm
The emptiness within a dangerous norm The music thumps a deafening beat
A desperate attempt to silence the streak But the ache remains a constant hum
A reminder of the battles that I can't seem to outrun
The pressure builds a suffocating cage Trapped in this darkness, turning every page
Yearning for peace, a moment of grace A temporary escape from this lonely space
Numb the ache with whatever I find A reckless distraction to leave the worries behind
Numb the ache with a bottle or a song Silence the voices that whisper all night long
Numb the ache with a stranger's touch A fleeting connection that loved, loved too
Much This numbing embrace is a dangerous game
But the only relief to ease the inner flame
But maybe tonight a whisper breaks through A voice woven in strong, honest and true
It says let go of this numbing haze Face the pain and I'll find a brighter way
The rain slows down, the sun starts to peak A glimmer of hope, a chance for me to speak
The ache may linger, but I won't numb the pain I'll face the darkness and rise again and again
Thanks for watching
