The Race is On
Heartache's Race: Charley Crockett's Tale of Love and Loss
Lyrics
I feel tears welling up cold deep inside my heart's sprung a big break
I feel tears welling up, cold deep inside; my heart has experienced a significant emotional break.
And a stab of loneliness sharp as paper all that I can take
A feeling of loneliness hits me sharply, like a paper cut; it's almost too much for me to bear.
You might of thought that I'm taking it hard since you broke it off with a call
Despite the breakup being initiated over the phone, don't assume I'm handling it well.
Don't you wager that i'll hide in sorrow and I might break right down and bawl
Don't assume I'll hide in sorrow; there's a chance I might break down and cry.
Now the race is on and here comes pride up the back stretch,
The competition for love is now underway, and pride is making a move in the relationship race.
Heart aches cut through my inside
Heartaches are piercing through me internally.
my tears are holding back trying not to fall
I'm holding back tears, trying not to let them fall.
My hearts out of the runnin
My heart is no longer actively participating in the pursuit of love.
two loves scratching for another safe
Two loves are competing, each vying for a safe and secure connection.
Now the race is on and it's looking like heartache, and the winner gonna lose it all
The competition intensifies, and it seems like heartache will be the ultimate winner, causing someone to lose everything.
One day I wagered in love never once suspecting what the final result would be
I took a chance on love without suspecting the eventual outcome.
And I lived in fear waking up each morning finding that your gone from me
Living in fear, waking up each morning to the realization that you're no longer with me.
There's an aching pain in my heart for days, the one that I hated to face
There's a lingering and painful ache in my heart that I dreaded facing.
Somebody new came up to win her,
Another person entered the competition and emerged as the winner, leaving me in second place.
And I ended up in second place
Similar to a race, pride is making a move again, and heartaches continue to affect me deeply.
Now the race is on and here comes pride up the back stretch,
Tears are held back as I try not to let them fall.
Heart aches cut through my inside
My heart is no longer actively participating in the pursuit of love.
my tears are holding back trying not to fall
Two loves are competing, each vying for the sake of the other.
My hearts out of the runnin
The race intensifies, and heartache seems inevitable.
true loves scratching for another's sake
The eventual winner is likely to lose everything in the pursuit of love.
Now the race is on and it's looking like heartache
Now the race for love is on, and heartache appears to be the outcome.
and the winner gonna lose it all
The ultimate winner in this race for love is expected to experience a significant loss.
