Hole in My Heart
Sleeping with Sirens Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Rainy days, rainy days, won't you go away
(I said) I don't know why, don't know why, I've been this feeling this way
(And I) Look in the mirror, I don't like what I see
(And I) Don't like the person staring right back at me
(But I) Gotta get myself together before I get weak

It's okay, show them who you are
Everybody hurts, everybody's got scars
It's okay, standing in the dark
Shine a little light from the hole in my, hole in my heart

Cloudy days, cloudy days, they are here to stay
I don't know why, don't know why, I've been this feeling this way
(And I) Can't stand the way everyone is looking at me
(So I) Keep my head down and I pray that no one can see
The tears I cry, yeah these tears I hide, so you don't see the pain in me

It's okay, show them who you are
Everybody hurts, everybody's got scars
It's okay, standing in the dark
Shine a little light from the hole in my heart
Shine a little light from the hole in my heart
Shine a little light from the hole in my, hole in my heart

I am thunder, I am rain
I will set you free from the hurricane
Through the fire and the flames
Yeah, we all get burned and we burn through the pain, yeah

I will help you through
You know I, I, I will be the light for you

It's okay, show them who you are
Everybody hurts, everybody's got scars
It's okay, standing in the dark
Shine a little light from the hole in my heart

Oo, don't let them break you down
Don't let them tear you down, yeah
It's like a hole in my heart
Don't let them break you down




Don't let them tear you down, yeah
Just like a hole in my heart

I found SWS yesterday. I know everyone else has been here for years and I don’t even know who’s who in the band (apart from Kellin), but their songs have saved my life just as much as others. This album (and “Better off dead”) are my distraction, my way to block out the voices that tell me I should cut deeper, I should just end it all. So thank you, Sleeping With Sirens. Years after writing these songs you are still helping people, saving people. ❤️
