[Verse 1]
They say just smile and you'll be fine
Like it's a storm that passes with time
But they don't see the weight I bear
A shadowed soul gasping for air
Chorus]
It's not just sadness
Not just pain
It's the flood you feel in the pouring rain
A hollow ache
A sinking tide
A darkness no one's light can guide
[Verse 2]
They don't know the quiet fight
The endless war that haunts the night
A million screams behind my eyes
Masked beneath my soft disguise
[Chorus]
It's not just sadness
Not just pain
It's the flood you feel in the pouring rain
A hollow ache
A sinking tide
A darkness no one's light can guide
[Verse 3]
They'll ask me why I cannot try
They'll call me weak when I deny
But they can't feel the chains that cling The silent sorrow a heart might bring [Bridge]
It's not like losing keys or gold
It's losing pieces of your soul
A labyrinth with no escape
No map
No torch
It's not just sadness
Not just pain
It's the flood you feel in the pouring rain
A hollow ache
A sinking tide
A darkness no one's light can guide
[Verse 3]
They'll ask me why I cannot try They'll call me weak when I deny
But they can't feel the chains that cling The silent sorrow a heart might bring [Bridge]
It's not like losing keys or gold
It's losing pieces of your soul
A labyrinth with no escape
No map
No torch
No fleeting grace
[Chorus]
It's not just sadness
Not just pain
It's a drowning pull that leaves a stain
A silent battle I must bide
A darkness no one's light can guide
