[Verse]
Pill bottles clatter like ghostly chains
Empty homes empty dreams pain remains
Rusty trucks on dirt roads no end in sight
Families torn apart in the dead of night

[Verse 2]
Fields dried up crops don't grow
Lost in a haze where did time go
Worn shoes shuffle on cracked old floors
Desperate shadows claw at battered doors

[Chorus]
Opiate hands gripping hearts tight
Stealing hope in the fading light
Children cry in the dark cold rain
Rural America drowning in this bane

[Verse 3]
Doctors' scripts like poison seeds
Sowing sorrow in fields of need
Mothers pray fathers lose their fight
Towns wither under the blackened blight

[Bridge]
Haunted faces where dreams decay
Despair's river carving away
Life's a struggle in the opioid haze
Doomed to wander through endless days

[Verse 4]
Church bells toll another lost soul
Communities broken hearts full of holes
Searching for a way out of the dark
But even the light's left a scarred mark
