[Verse]
Dust on my boots streets ain't the same
Carry the weight of a faceless name
Eyes in the mirror don’t meet my own
Fighting a war but I’m back home
[Chorus]
Hold it together don’t let it show
Swallow the screams bury it low
Family's watching can't let them see
This war inside tearing at me
[Verse 2]
The nights are long shadows creep in
Gunfire echoes beneath my skin
Smiles are heavy they don’t feel real
But I stand tall don’t let them steal
[Chorus]
Hold it together don’t let it show
Swallow the screams bury it low
Family's watching can't let them see
This war inside tearing at me
[Bridge]
They need a man not a broken soul
So I fake a laugh play my role
The tears they fall where no one knows
In silence I fight the undertow
[Chorus]
Hold it together don’t let it show
Swallow the screams bury it low
Family's watching can't let them see
This war inside tearing at me
