[Verse]
Dark days follow me
Shadows claw and creep
Silent screams inside
Guilt I can't confide
[Verse 2]
Daughters see me grin
Inside falls the night
Partner feels my warmth
I'm cold in the fight
[Chorus]
Why can't I be free
Break these chains for me
Happiness is far
Wounds become my scars
[Bridge]
Behind my eyes a storm
Mind in raging form
Can't let them all know
This silent undertow
[Verse 3]
Father role I play
Smile through every day
Hiding cracks within
From this battle weeping
[Chorus]
Why can't I be free
Break these chains for me
Happiness is far
Wounds become my scars
