Desperate
Reggae, metalLyrics
[INTRO]
In the shadows where whispers break,
Desperate hearts, craving for escape.
Old and broken, can’t find the light,
This want pulls me under, disappears in the night.
[VERSE 1]
I wear the scars of battles lost,
A ghost of a dream, can’t measure the cost.
The mirror reflects a face tired and worn,
Seeking distractions in a world so torn.
[CHORUS]
Make it go away, this ache in my soul,
Desperate and unwanted, I lose all control.
Running from shadows that cradle my fears,
Falling through echoes, drowning in tears.
[VERSE 2]
Clinging to hope like the last summer breeze,
Every glance a reminder, a jagged disease.
The heart wants a spark, but can't find the flame,
Caged in this want that has no name.
[CHORUS]
Make it go away, this ache in my soul,
Desperate and unwanted, I lose all control.
Running from shadows that cradle my fears,
Falling through echoes, drowning in tears.
[BRIDGE]
Oh, silence, I seek you, but you’d run away,
You’re the soft lullaby at the end of the day.
But this want is distraction, a thief in the night,
Tearing me down, and stealing my flight.
[VERSE 3]
Promises buried beneath yesterday’s pain,
Searching for shelter in a world so vain.
But I rise like the dawn, though the battle is long,
As the tides pull me closer, I’m still holding on.
[CHORUS]
Make it go away, this ache in my soul,
Desperate and unwanted, I lose all control.
Running from shadows that cradle my fears,
Falling through echoes, drowning in tears.
[HOOK]
Desperate and unwanted, still I remain,
An old, broken spirit in a world full of chains.
But I’ll scream to the sky, and I’ll fight to be free,
One day this distraction will no longer be me.
[OUTRO]
So make it go away, let the healing begin,
In the heart of the broken, I’m ready to mend.
Desperate and unwanted, I’ll rise from the gray,
With a whisper of hope, I’ll find my own way.
