[Intro]
Underneath these streetlights, shadows dissolve,
A blue collar heart, no problems to solve.
Hands of the worker, calloused and worn,
But love turned to ashes, the innocence torn.
[Verse 1]
Five o'clock whistle, boots hit the ground,
He heads to the house, but emptiness found.
The smell of another, perfume in the air,
Eyes filled with rage, life just doesn’t seem fair.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every promise shattered, like glass on the floor,
In the heart of a man who can take it no more.
Silent as thunder, he’s lost in despair,
Blue collar demons, he’s got nothing to share.
[Chorus]
And the night whispers secrets that nobody hears,
Life turns to blood when you drown in your fears.
A love that was true turns to agony and pain,
When a blue collar heart feels the weight of the chain.
[Verse 2]
A flash of the past, their laughter still sings,
But echoes of lntro]
Underneath these streetlights, shadows dissolve,
A blue collar heart, no problems to solve.
Hands of the worker, calloused and worn,
But love turned to ashes, the innocence torn.
[Verse 1]
Five o'clock whistle, boots hit the ground,
He heads to the house, but emptiness found.
The smell of another, perfume in the air,
Eyes filled with rage, life just doesn’t seem fair.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every promise shattered, like glass on the floor,
In the heart of a man who can take it no more.
Silent as thunder, he’s lost in despair,
Blue collar demons, he’s got nothing to share.
[Chorus]
And the night whispers secrets that nobody hears,
Life turns to blood when you drown in your fears.
A love that was true turns to agony and pain,
When a blue collar heart feels the weight of the chain.
[Verse 2]
A flash of the past, their laughter still sings,
But echoes of lying unravel with stings.
He's holding despair in the palm of his hand,
The tools of his trade, but he’s not a free man.
[Pre-Chorus]
Decisions are heavy, like lead on his soul,
The man that he’s become, taking all of the toll.
Night after night, dreams fade away,
Blue collar mysteries led him astray.
[Chorus]
And the night whispers secrets that nobody hears,
Life turns to blood when you drown in your fears.
A love that was true turns to agony and pain,
When a blue collar heart feels the weight of the chain.
[Bridge]
In the stillness, he trembles, a knife in his grip,
No words left to say, no chance of a slip.
This life is a gamble with double-edged knives,
In the depths of despair, nobody survives.
[Chorus]
And the night whispers secrets that nobody hears,
Life turns to blood when you drown in your fears.
A love that was true turns to agony and pain,
When a blue collar heart feels the weight of the chain.
[Outro]
So listen to the silence and hear what it brings,
A blue collar man, lost in night and its stings.
In the end, there's a price, too high to assess,
A love turned to darkness, a heart in distress.
