[Intro]
[FX - Heartbeat pulsing]
A shot to kill the pain, yeah,
We’re riding on this train,
Feel the love and feel the strain,
Can’t escape this haunting chain.
[Verse 1]
In shadows deep where hope has fled,
Searching for a light instead,
Through clouds of smoke, our voices break,
Drowning in the choices that we make.
[Pre-Chorus]
Promises made, but lost in time,
Every deal is just a climb,
We’re dancing close to our despair,
In a world that doesn’t care.
[Chorus]
A pill to drain the shame,
A purge to stop the gain,
In this game of endless blame,
We fight but it hurts the same.
(Oh-oh)
An addiction's an addiction,
And we wear it like a chain.
(Oh-oh)
But through the pain, can we find a way?
[Build-Up]
[FX - Deep synths rising]
A cut to break the vein,
[Heartbeat getting faster]
A smoke to ease the crave,
[FX - A voice echoing]
A drink to win the game,
[Heavy bass drops]
Can we heal or just refrain?
[Chorus]
A pill to drain the shame,
A purge to stop the gain,
In this game of endless blame,
We fight but it hurts the same.
(Oh-oh)
An addiction's an addiction,
And we wear it like a chain.
(Oh-oh)
But through the pain, can we find a way?
[Bridge]
And when the night is closing in,
Let’s break the cycle, let’s begin,
We’ll rise from ashes, feel the sun,
Together we can overcome.
[Chorus]
A pill to drain the shame,
A purge to stop the gain,
In this game of endless blame,
We fight but it hurts the same.
(Oh-oh)
An addiction's an addiction,
And we wear it like a chain.
(Oh-oh)
But through the pain, can we find a way?
[Outro]
[FX - Heartbeat fading]
So here’s to life, with open eyes,
To face the truth beneath the skies,
No matter how we feel the shame,
Let’s break these chains, we’ll find our name.
