(Verse 1)
The road I walked was paved with gold I thought
Each step would lead to skies so bright
But storms came rolling, fierce and hot
Left me lost in endless night
My hands once full of dreams I’d hold
Now clutch at shadows in the cold
(Chorus)
This is the place where hearts break slow
Where every tear has nowhere to go
The hardest mile I’ll ever know
In life’s long journey, this low blow
Silence screams where words won’t flow
This is my deepest sorrow’s glow
(Verse 2)
I built my world with hopes like stone
Believed they’d stand through wind and rain
But time has worn them down alone
Left only dust and bitter pain
The faces that I used to know
Have faded like the morning snow
(Chorus)
This is the place where hearts break slow
Where every tear has nowhere to go
The hardest mile I’ll ever know
In life’s long journey, this low blow
Silence screams where words won’t flow
This is my deepest sorrow’s glow
(Bridge)
I try to find a way to rise
To see the light beyond the grey
But for now, I close my eyes
And let the grief have its day
(Outro)
The road still stretches far ahead
Though darkness wraps around my head
