Racing in the Dark

Yeah, it's just me, racing through the night

Demons on my shoulder, yeah, they fight, they bite

Speeding on my bike, wishing I could take flight

But I’m stuck in this darkness, losing my light

Twenty-five thoughts, all in my brain

Battling shadows, drowning in pain

Friends asking if I’m okay, I just smile

Behind the mask, I’ve been hurting a while

Fake love, fake smiles, I see through the lie

Hoping for a break, but I just get by

Daddy left real early, left scars that remain

Trust is a ghost, I can’t seem to explain

Push people away, afraid they’ll leave

Built walls so high, what’s left to believe?

Silent screams echo, inside I fight

Praying for peace, nightly I wish for flight

Can’t find where to start, hand out, no reply

Lost in the dark, just want to fly high

Ask for help, but I don’t know how

Caught in the storm, don’t know if I’ll come out now

I’m screaming inside, they don’t see the pain

Lost in my mind, walking through the rain

Want something real but I don’t know how

Girl, I’m just trying to find my now

Heavy is the heart that’s been torn apart

Looking for a spark in the dark, for a new start

Family shadows, I carry them daily

Hoping someday maybe I’ll be okay, maybe

Speeding on my bike, racing through my fears

Hoping the end will finally clear

But till then, I ride, hide my scars

And wish upon every star that I find who we are
