(Verse 1)
In the depths of my soul, where shadows lie,
There's a silent scream, a tearless cry.
A hidden sorrow, a buried ache,
In the recesses of my heart, it makes its stake.

(Chorus)
Burying the pain, beneath a smile,
Hiding the hurt, mile after mile.
But in the silence of the night, it creeps,
A relentless tide, it never sleeps.

(Verse 2)
Behind these eyes, a storm does brew,
A hurricane of emotions, tried and true.
I paint on a mask, a facade so bright,
But underneath it all, I fight the night.

(Chorus)
Burying the pain, in the depths of me,
A heavy burden, a silent plea.
But even in laughter, it whispers low,
A constant reminder, of the depths I go.

(Bridge)
I build walls high, brick by brick,
To keep the pain at bay, to make it stick.
But cracks appear, and light seeps through,
Revealing the scars, the residue.

(Verse 3)
I drown it out, with noise and cheer,
But in moments of stillness, it draws near.
A ghost of the past, a specter to haunt,
In the corridors of my mind, it taunts.

(Chorus)
Burying the pain, beneath the ground,
Hoping someday, it won't be found.
But it lingers on, a lingering ache,
A constant companion, in the shadows I make.

(Outro)
So I'll face it head-on, I'll let it be,
For burying the pain won't set me free.
I'll embrace the hurt, I'll let it rise,
For only then, can I truly realize.
