[Verse]
Strings scream loud under my hand
Rusty chords cut through the sand
Blood on the frets
A price I pay
Every note takes the night away
[Chorus]
Guitars and pain
They sound the same
A howl in the dark
A spark
A flame
Guitars and pain
Tearing my name
I play to forget
But it burns just the same
[Verse 2]
Broken amp hums
It won't quit
Echoes bounce
They don't fit
Fingers blistered
Soul untamed
Still I strum
Still I’m blamed
[Bridge]
What’s the cost
What’s the weight
Is it too late
Too late
Strings bend
The neck cracks
But I can't take it back
[Chorus]
Guitars and pain
They sound the same
A howl in the dark
A spark
A flame
Guitars and pain
Tearing my name
I play to forget
But it burns just the same
