(Intro)
Screaming inside, nobody hears
Carrying ghosts for all these years
(Verse)
Piggy calls while the bullets fly
Baby’s big eyes still break me inside
Door kicked in, trigger almost pulled
Kids screaming loud through the thin wall
Man jumps nineteen, body hits hard
CPR on sand, waves at my feet
Guy walks beach with face blown apart
AK aimed at me, they said I was wrong
(Prechorus)
Come home quiet, I don’t speak a word
You talk bad days, mine stay unheard
I nod and smile while the nightmares burn
I’m dying slowly and no one learns
(Chorus)
Sky turned gray, trees turned gray
Food has no taste since I walked away
I miss the fire, I miss the fight
But it almost killed me every night
Dreams drag me back to the sheriff’s car
I left that life but it won’t release me
Front row to hell, it took my soul
I’m screaming for help but I’m all alone
(Verse)
Machete swings, cuts into my skin
Bodies mangled where the forest spins
House on fire, kid covered in ash
Pitbull tears leave blood on the floor
Three drownings back to back that day
Father died while the son still breathed
I carry it silent, day after day
No one sees the price that I paid
(Prechorus)
You see airport cop, nothing happens here
You don’t see the weight that I still bear
I suggest training, they roll their eyes
They don’t understand the real price
(Chorus)
Sky turned gray, trees turned gray
Food has no taste since I walked away
I miss the fire, I miss the fight
But it almost killed me every night
Dreams drag me back to the sheriff’s car
I left that life but it won’t release me
Front row to hell, it took my soul
I’m screaming for help but I’m all alone
(Bridge)
This is me bleeding out
All the pain I never talk about
I’m screaming inside but no one hears
Been suffering alone year after year
I miss the job but it breaks my heart
I’m lost and broken, can’t you see the scars?
This song is my truth, my silent scream
Please listen close, I need you to believe
(Chorus)
Sky turned gray, trees turned gray
Food has no taste since I walked away
I miss the fire, I miss the fight
But it almost killed me every night
Dreams drag me back to the sheriff’s car
I left that life but it won’t release me
Front row to hell, it took my soul
I’m screaming for help but I’m all alone
(Outro)
I’m right here screaming
Please hear me now
I need you to see me
Before I break down
