Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My instruments lie still upon the floor tonight
The strings have grown so cold without my touch
I used to paint emotions with these hands of mine
But now the colors fade, it hurts too much
[Pre-chorus]
Every song I try to sing
Catches in my throat like dust
Till this pain subsides within
Till I learn again to trust
[Chorus]
I've locked away my melodies
Till this heart finds peace again
In this silence, on my knees
Waiting for the hurt to end
(Waiting for the hurt to end)
[Verse 2]
They ask me why the music stopped so suddenly
I smile and turn away, they wouldn't know
The weight of every note I cannot bring myself to free
The burden of each verse I let go
[Pre-chorus]
Morning turns to evening light
As I sit here all alone
Till these wounds heal deep inside
Till these walls turn back to home
[Chorus]
I've locked away my melodies
Till this heart finds peace again
In this silence, on my knees
Waiting for the hurt to end
(Waiting for the hurt to end)
[Bridge]
But somewhere in the distance
I hear a gentle call
A promise of tomorrow
When I might risk it all
When these scars turn into strength
And pain transforms to art
[Verse 3]
There's healing in the quiet of these empty rooms
Where once my voice would fill the air with sound
Perhaps in time these fragments will piece together soon
And what was lost might finally be found
[Chorus]
I've locked away my melodies
Till this heart finds peace again
In this silence, on my knees
Waiting for the hurt to end
(Waiting for the hurt, waiting for the pain)
Waiting for the hurt to end
