[Verse 1]
Rain on the tin roof, a melody of sorrow,
Whiskey in my veins, drowning out tomorrow.
Boot prints in the mud, ghost trails in the yard,
Memories cut deep, sharp as a broken shard.
Hands on the wheel, but I’m swervin’ in my head,
Every mile’s a mile closer to things I left unsaid.
[Prechorus]
Tried to stitch the wounds, but the thread won’t hold,
Warm nights turned cold, love’s stories grow old.
[Chorus]
Arrow through my heart, never saw it comin’,
Tried to outrun it, but the pain keeps hummin’.
Strings on my guitar, strummin’ through the ache,
Every chord I play, another piece breaks.
Arrow through my heart, stuck where it landed,
I’m stranded, empty-handed.
[Verse 2]
The barn’s burnin’ slow, smoke curls in the air,
Ashes in my chest, but I still feel you there.
The devil’s in the bottle, laughing at my fall,
The echo of your voice still haunts these walls.
Clock hands keep tickin’, but they’re movin’ in reverse,
Each second drags me deeper, every verse gets worse.
[Bridge]
Said I’d never fold, but I’m crumblin’ inside,
Wrote our story in ink, now it’s smeared where I cried.
A heartbeat’s a hammer, pounding in my ribs,
This love’s a prison, and I’m servin’ my bid.
[Chorus]
Arrow through my heart, never saw it comin’,
Tried to outrun it, but the pain keeps hummin’.
Strings on my guitar, strummin’ through the ache,
Every chord I play, another piece breaks.
Arrow through my heart, stuck where it landed,
I’m stranded, empty-handed.
