Bike Beneath the Night

Letra

Verse 1 — Soft Piano, Emotional Male Vocals] Thirteen years, we built a life, Through the happy days and the sleepless nights. Kim, you were the home inside my heart, Now I'm learning how to live when we're apart. I should have told you what you meant to me, Now I'm fighting with the man I used to be. I carry all the memories, the good and bad, Trying to find the strength in the life we had. [Pre-Chorus — Drums Slowly Building] And I'm screaming in the silence, With a thousand words unsaid. Trying to escape the shadows That keep running through my head. [Pre-Chorus — Drums Slowly Building] And I'm screaming in the silence, With a thousand words unsaid. Trying to escape the shadows That keep running through my head. [Chorus — Huge Guitars, Powerful Drums, Duet Harmonies] I'm still fighting, I'm still breathing, Even when my heart is barely beating. I've faced the devil, I've walked through hell, Fought a war that nobody could tell. With a bike beneath me, I'll ride into the night, Chasing freedom, searching for the light. I've lost a love, but I won't lose me, I'm still here, and I'm learning to be free. Verse 2 — Piano and Clean Electric Guitar] There's a devil in the mirror wearing my face, Telling me I'm broken, that I've fallen from grace. Depression pulls me under when the world goes cold, But there's a little more fight in this battered soul. I fire up the engine, hear it thunder and roar, Feel the wind remind me what I'm living for. Every mile I travel leaves a little pain behind, Maybe somewhere down this road, I'll find some peace of mind. [Verse 3 — Building Rock Rhythm] Down beside the water, where the morning meets the sky, I cast a line and watch the troubled hours pass by. From Yorkshire lakes to La Val Dor, Carp Side reminds me there's still so much worth fighting for. A mirror carp breaks the silence, the sun begins to rise, For a moment there's no darkness, no tears behind my eyes. Just the water, just the silence, just a reason to believe, That there's still a little happiness waiting there for me. Bridge — Female Vocals, Soft Piano] Female voice: You don't have to hide your scars, You don't have to be that strong. Even when you feel forgotten, You still deserve to carry on. Male voice: I've been searching for an answer, I've been lost inside the rain. But I'm learning that surviving Doesn't mean I feel no pain. Final Chorus — Full Band, Both Voices Together] We're still fighting, we're still breathing, Through the broken hearts and all the reasons. I've faced the devil, I've walked through hell, But I'm more than all the pain I never tell. With a bike beneath me, I'll ride into the light, Leave the ghosts behind me in the darkness of the night. I've lost a love, but I won't lose me, I'm still here, and I'm finally breaking free! Female harmonies rise above the final lines as the guitars soar. [Outro — Piano, Soft Guitar, Emotional Vocals] Kim, you'll always be a part of me, Thirteen years won't fade into a memory. But somewhere in the darkness, I can finally see… The man I lost is coming back to me. One final piano chord. A distant guitar rings out. I'm still here… I'm still fighting… And I'm not finished yet.
