Iran from this

Intro – soft electric guitar, rising distortion)
(TV static fades in)
🗣️ “They say we might go to war…”
🎙️ (quiet, gritty)
“But truth is… I been fightin’ one of my own.”

⸻

(Verse 1 – slow, building)
They say we might go to war, yeah the sky’s gettin’ cold again
But I been at war with the mirror, since way back when
Funny how Iran got me thinkin’ how I ran
Outta time… but the love Isreal, yeah it was the plan

Scrolling through ghosts in the middle of night
Tryna find peace in the middle of a fight
Your name used to light up my phone like a flare
Now it’s just shadows and smoke in the air

⸻

(Pre-Chorus – tense)
I pushed you away…
Now I’m the one left to break

⸻

(Chorus – loud, crashing)
It’s chaos out there, but worse in my head
I ran from your love, now I’m drowning in red
Thinkin’ ’bout how I ran, yeah, I lost the feel
But the love was real—yeah, the love Isreal

Hope you’re safe while I burn down here
Stuck in this trench with the weight of my fear
The world’s on fire, but the worst I’ve felt…
Is this war, this war with myself

⸻

(Verse 2 – heavier, full band)
Not tryna haunt you, I know you moved on
But sometimes I wonder if you feel it in a song
Would you flash back to nights where we used to be?
Or is it just me, stuck replayin’ memories?

I hope you found peace while I fade in regret
I write down your name, but it bleeds when it’s wet
You deserved more than a runaway heart
But I broke before I knew where to start

⸻

(Pre-Chorus – scream/growl)
I pushed you away…
And I paid for it every day!

⸻

(Chorus – louder, layered vocals)
It’s chaos out there, but worse in my head
I ran from your love, now I’m drowning in red
Thinkin’ ’bout how I ran, yeah, I lost the feel
But the love was real—yeah, the love Isreal

Hope you’re safe while I burn down here
Stuck in this trench with the weight of my fear
The world’s on fire, but the worst I’ve felt…
Is this war, this war with myself

⸻

(Bridge – stripped back, haunting)
🎙️ (soft/spoken)
They say it’s all falling apart…
But I’ve already shattered.

🎙️ (builds, screamed)
I RAN — FROM THE ONE WHO HELD ME
I RAN — LEFT MY OWN HEART EMPTY
I RAN — AND THE SKY TURNED BLACK
BUT I’D GIVE ANYTHING TO TAKE IT BACK

⸻

(Final Chorus – massive drop, full power)
It’s chaos out there, but worse in my head
I ran from your love, now I’m drowning in red
Thinkin’ ’bout how I ran, yeah, I lost the feel
But the love was real—yeah, the love Isreal

Hope you’re safe while I burn down here
I’m the smoke in the air, I’m the scream in your ear
World war’s comin’—but my greatest hell
Is this war…
This war with myself

⸻

(Outro – fading distortion, broken voice)
Still fightin’… still losin’… still missin’ you.
Still at war… with myself.
