Hidden Hurt, Open Heart

[Intro]
Silent nights, heavy hearts
Hidden tears, tearing apart

[Verse 1]
They say you live behind a mask, hiding what you feel
But I see through the darkness, love is real
You walk away like it's simple, like it's nothing at all
But I know the truth, you're hurting, hear your call

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm reaching out in silence, wishing you'd hold on tight
But you're distant, lost in shadows, out of my sight

[Chorus]
I love you more than words can say, more than this pain
Even in the silence, I feel your tear-stained rain
You're with someone else, breaking my heart each day
But I know you're hurting, wanting me to stay

[Bridge]
Don't think I’ve walked away, I’m here, just unseen
Deep inside, I'm bleeding, lost in what might have been
You’re doing things with someone else, but it’s not the same
I pray you see, I love you, despite the shame

[Outro]
Even though you don’t think it hurts, I know the truth
My love for you is endless, forever blue
