I Don’t Know What to Do

Intro (soft)

I never wanted to stand here…

but now I’m here.

⸻

Verse 1

Everything’s falling apart, I can barely stand,

Apartment full of tension, no one talks, no hand.

She says I’m the reason – I hear just that word,

Feel like a villain, but I haven’t fled the world.

I love you, I hide, scared I’ll lose,

Twisted the truth, just to hold us from bruising.

Every little lie was a crack in the ground,

Now I’m standing in the dust of what love once found.

My son wants to move – swallow this pain,

Am I enough as a father, or just a heart in chains?

I wanted to fight, till my last breath’s gone,

Now I feel empty, like I can’t hold on.

⸻

Hook

I don’t know what to do,

my mind is loud, my heart feels bare.

I never wanted to lose you,

but this is happening here.

I don’t know what to do,

but giving up’s not my way.

Even if I’m on the ground –

I’ll get back up today.

⸻

Verse 2 (faster)

Ticking thoughts, no pause in my head,

Regret echoes, hits me like lead.

“Why did you lie?” – because I was scared, man,

Scared to lose you before I even can.

I wanted to look strong, show no weakness at all,

But strength without truth makes a love fall.

I made mistakes – yeah, I own them, you see,

But I never lacked love – believe me.

My little star in the sky, I stare at the night,

Wonder if I did right as a dad, tried with all my might.

I tell Lisa up there, Papa is learning anew,

From a man full of fear to a man who’s true.

⸻

Hook

I don’t know what to do,

but I won’t give up now.

My son should see:

His father stands somehow.

I don’t know what to do,

but I’m still standing here.

Maybe I fell down –

But I won’t stay here.

⸻

Outro (soft, emotional)

I can’t take anymore –

but I still want to be more.

Not perfect.

Just real.

Maybe I lost a lot.

But I won’t lose myself.

Verse 3 (aggressiv)

I ran through lies like fire in my veins,

tried to hold us up, but all I did was pain.

Every word I twisted, every secret I kept,

now the weight of my actions is tearing me, yep.

Heart racing, mind spinning, can’t breathe, can’t see,

I pushed you away while I screamed internally.

I’m a soldier of fear, trapped in my own war,

love meant to protect, but I broke the core.

⸻

Verse 4 (aggressiv, emotional end)

I can’t undo the nights, the tears, the fights,

I’ve been blind in the dark, now I’m bleeding lights.

I should’ve been honest, should’ve faced the truth,

instead I’m drowning in the echo of my youth.

I rage against myself, my hands tied in chains,

every step I take just fuels the pains.

But hear me now – my heart still screams your name,

I’ll fight through hell itself, I’ll never be the same
