Lyrics

[ intro ] You ever open up the curtains in the house? first thing you do when you jump up outta bed ta let the sun light shine through out only ta walk in the light shadowed by your reality that no one sees haunting you,as the day fades inta night the candle smokes,but can't find the flame day repeats night......... Just checking in on you.... You're not alone...[ Verse]

I throw the curtains wide when the first light breaks

Step out of bed, let the morning hit these old bones awake

But the shadow in the hallway knows my name too well

It follows every breath I take, like a quiet private hell

And I keep on saying I’m alright

So I’m just checkin’ in, tellin’ the dark I’m still here

You ain’t alone in this hollow, even when the road disappears

Yeah, the sun turns to smoke, and the candles won’t light

But we keep on drivin’ through the day that keeps repeatin’ night

I crack the curtains wide when the morning breaks

Sunlight pours in, but it only shows the ache

I step out the bed and the shadows know my name

One foot in the daylight, still I wear the blame

Candles keep on smoking, but they never catch the flame

Day repeats night, and I keep on ridin' through

Haunted by the things that no one else can view

I'm hurtin' in the silence, but I'm still holdin' on

Just checkin' in on you, you're not alone

Same old day rolls over like a worn-out truck

I been dancin' with the past, bad luck after bad luck

Highs and lows, PTSD, and a bottle for the pain

Tryna outrun the hurt, but it circles back again

A girl from way back keeps fallin' through my mind

Like time got all wrinkled and left me trapped behind

Day repeats night, and I keep on ridin' through

Haunted by the things that no one else can view

I'm hurtin' in the silence, but I'm still holdin' on

Just checkin' in on you, you're not alone

If the dark gets heavy, let the mornin' find your door

We're both still here, even when it feels like more

I dance with the past like it’s dust on my boots

Highs and lows in a worn-out heart, tellin' half-truths

PTSD in the rearview, addiction at the wheel

A girl from before keeps comin' back, cuttin' like a steel blade feel

Time folds in on me, and I can’t get free

So I’m just checkin’ in, tellin’ the dark I’m still here

You ain’t alone in this hollow, even when the road disappears

Yeah, the sun turns to smoke, and the candles won’t light

But we keep on drivin’ through the day that keeps repeatin’ night

If your heart’s been bruised, let mine sing along

You’re not alone in the breakin’, we’ll be broken but strong
