[Intro – 0:00–0:10]

Yeah, yeah...

Tears on my face, but I hide that pain,

Same old scars, just a different rain.

Oh-oh, yeah...

 

[Chorus – 0:10–0:34]

Teardrops fallin' on my black hoodie,

Heart turned cold, ain't nobody understood me.

I gave my all, you took everything from me,

Now I'm fightin' all these demons tryna hunt me.

 

Teardrops, teardrops, drownin' in the rain,

I keep screamin', but nobody hears the pain.

Broken promises, they never stay the same,

You left me in the dark, now I'm walkin' through the flames.

 

[Verse 1 – 0:34–1:09]

I've been runnin' from the past, but it's catchin' up,

Every time I find love, they ain't givin' much.

Had my heart on my sleeve, now I'm stitchin' cuts,

Everybody say they real till the road gets rough.

 

Late nights, headlights, drivin' through the storm,

Used to feel alive, now my soul feel torn.

You were supposed to be my shelter when the rain poured,

Now I'm standin' in the wreckage of the love we formed.

 

I don't wanna hear apologies, they're overdue,

I was fightin' for forever, you were passin' through.

Had a thousand different reasons I believed in you,

Now a thousand broken pieces show me what is true.

 

I been down, I been hurt, I been pushed aside,

Had to learn the hardest lessons with these tears I cried.

You can see a little smile, never what's inside,

I'm a storm behind the silence that I cannot hide.

 

[Chorus – 1:09–1:33]

Teardrops fallin' on my black hoodie,

Heart turned cold, ain't nobody understood me.

I gave my all, you took everything from me,

Now I'm fightin' all these demons tryna hunt me.

 

Teardrops, teardrops, drownin' in the rain,

I keep screamin', but nobody hears the pain.

Broken promises, they never stay the same,

You left me in the dark, now I'm walkin' through the flames.

 

[Verse 2 – 1:33–2:09 | HARD TWIST]

Now I'm back with a vengeance, got a fire in my chest,

All the pain that you gave me put my heart to the test.

Had to bury all the memories, let the old me rest,

I ain't sayin' I'm perfect, I'm just givin' my best.

 

Every scar got a story, every tear got a name,

Every person that abandoned me became another flame.

I was beggin' for some loyalty, you treated it like games,

Now I'm buildin' something stronger out the pieces of my pain.

 

Found a letter in my jacket, thought it came from you,

But the handwriting was mine from when my heart was new.

Said, "Don't forget the kid who had a dream to chase,"

Now I'm starin' at a stranger with my younger face.

 

Plot twist, I ain't cryin' 'cause you walked away,

I'm cryin' for the part of me I lost along the way.

Wiped the mirror, saw that kid still standin' tall,

These ain't tears of my defeat, they're proof I survived it all.

 

[Final Chorus – 2:09–2:31 | POWERFUL TWIST]

Teardrops fallin' on my black hoodie,

Heart still scarred, but the pain ain't gonna rule me.

I gave my all, you took everything from me,

But you couldn't take the dreams that still run through me.

 

Teardrops, teardrops, wash away the pain,

I survived another night inside the pourin' rain.

Broken promises won't ever be my chains,

You left me in the dark, now I'm the one who lights the flames.

 

[Outro – 2:31–2:35]

Yeah...

I thought I lost you...

But I found me.
