Lyrics
[Intro] You're screaming in silence, longing for release But fear holds you back from finding inner peace The memories haunt you in the dead of night The echoes of the gunshots ring loud and bright But deep down you know, it was the only way To save lives and keep the darkness at bay [Verse] It's like a shadow creeping in, consuming your soul But you keep it all locked up, afraid to lose control I can see it in your eyes, the pain you're trying to hide The weight of what you did, it's eating you up inside You had no choice, but still you had to make that call To pull the trigger and watch it all fall [Verse] And You're drowning in silence, suffocating in shame But deep down you know that things will never be the same In the silence of your mind, find peace in knowing That your heart was pure and your intentions glowing We all have battles that we must fight And sometimes we must do what's not quite right [Chorus] Because the pain you're trying to hide It's eating you up inside You think no one sees, but I know it well (Courage in the face of fear) You think no one sees, but I know it well The agony you're trying to quell (Love that's always near) [Instrumental] [Verse] You try to push it away, pretend it doesn't exist But the ache in your heart is too hard to resist I can see it in your eyes, the pain you're trying to conceal The burden of your actions, it's all too real You had to make a choice, a sacrifice so hard To protect those you love, leave behind the scars [Verse] This ain't no game, this is real life drama Surviving through chaos and trauma The scars may fade but the memories remain A constant reminder of that moment of pain But in your eyes, I see a glimmer of hope That despite it all, you found a way to cope [Outro] We walk through shadows and face our fears Sometimes stained with blood and tears And in your heart, you carry the weight of the truth That sometimes a hard decision is the only proof Sometimes a hard decision is the only proof
