Title: Locked Room Thoughts
Verse 1
Found myself in a locked room with a bottle
Half of Tito’s gone, drowning out my problems
Loaded .45, just spinning through the options
Practicing drills I shouldn’t even mention
Asking myself, is suicide real?
If I pull that trigger, who am I to kill?
Is it pain, is it me, is it something I conceal?
Or a war in my mind I just never could heal
Pre-Chorus
Ten-hour days, yeah, I’m losing my pace
Liver working overtime just to keep me in place
Every other night, I’m just trying to escape
But the mirror don’t lie when it look in my face
Chorus
I been running from the silence in my head
Trying to outdrive every thought I dread
But no matter where I go, it follows instead
And I’m tired… yeah I’m tired
Got my kids, that’s the reason I stay
Even when the darkness won’t fade away
Lost too many people, can’t carry the weight
But I’m trying… yeah I’m trying
Verse 2
Loving my kids to the end of it
They the only light when I’m sick of it
Lost so many souls, I’m still stuck with it
Pain don’t leave, man, it just sits
Switched lanes, thought driving would be better
Open roads, new views, clear weather
But the truth hit harder than ever
It ain’t the road, it’s the storm I weather
Bridge
Scenery looking good from afar
But inside, still the same old scars
Miles and miles, but I ain’t that far
From the same dark place where I started
Chorus
I been running from the silence in my head
Trying to outdrive every thought I dread
But no matter where I go, it follows instead
And I’m tired… yeah I’m tired
Got my kids, that’s the reason I stay
Even when the darkness won’t fade away
Lost too many people, can’t carry the weight
But I’m trying… yeah I’m trying
Outro
Locked room thoughts but I made it out
Still got demons that I think about
But if I fall, I won’t stay down
‘Cause they need me… yeah, they need me now
