PAIN is the raw, ferocious heart of Relayt’s four-album saga, trading smooth rhythms for a poignant songs of reflection, heavy riffs and brutal honesty. This album delivers a powerful hybrid of Rock, Nu-Metal, and aggressive Hip-Hop—a sound welded together by wicked guitar riffs and slick, biting rhymes.
Lyrically, PAIN is a deep excavation of internal struggle and dependency. It confronts the dark terrain of toxic love ("Broken Promises") and (“Empty Echos”) the chaos of dynamic family relationships, all intensified by the haunting  ("Alone in the Dark). The album also features “Last dance," a track that metaphorically frames addiction as the final, unavoidable surrender to a self-destructive cycle.
PAIN is an essential sonic vent for emotional wreckage, where the noise and aggression are not just style—they are the sound of profound personal conflict being fought out loud.

Pain in Paradise

[Verse]
I call your name but the air just swallows it all
My voice gets lost in the endless hollows
Your eyes glaze over like I’m not here
How’d we end up in this atmosphere

[Prechorus]
I reach you
You vanish
I speak
You don’t hear
I’m standing in your shadow
But you’re nowhere near

[Chorus]
Empty echoes
Empty space
I’m chasing love you won’t replace
Talking to walls
No reply
You’re the sun
I’m the sky

Empty echoes… (echo: echoes…)
I’m breakin’, I’m fallin’, but I won’t let it go!

[Verse 2]
Your hand in mine feels colder than stone
Your heart’s a house
But it’s not my home
I’m screaming loud inside my head
I’m alive but this love feels dead

[Chorus]
Empty echoes
Empty space
I’m chasing love you won’t replace
Talking to walls
No reply
You’re the sun
I’m the sky

Empty echoes… (echo: echoes…)
I’m breakin’, I’m fallin’, but I won’t let it go!

[Bridge]
I build a bridge
You burn it down
I wear the crown of a love that drowns
I’m tired of running in this race
It’s a one-way street
No embrace

Empty echoes
Empty space
I’m chasing love you won’t replace
Talking to walls
No reply
You’re the sun
I’m the sky

Empty echoes… (echo: echoes…)
I’m breakin’, I’m fallin’, but I won’t let it go!

Empty Echoes

Yo, clock drags heavy, room’s a cage of thin air,
Whispers slither in like snakes in despair.
Your vows were iron chains, now they’re driftin’ ghosts,
Anchors turned to vapor, leavin’ me the most.
I poured my soul into this fragile frame,
You lit the match, watched it go up in flame.
Stranded on these streets, echoes mock my plea,
Built empires of trust, now they’re rubble debris.
Heart’s a battlefield, littered with your deceit,
Floatin’ fragments of us, trampled under feet.
(Chorus)
Broken promises, they cut like glass!
Shattered pieces of our past!
You said forever, but forever lied!
Now I’m drownin’ in the tears I cried!
(Verse 2 )
Your silhouette haunts the walls like a curse,
Love’s old symphony, now reversed in reverse.
Echoes of passion turned to thunderous quiet,
Silence screams louder than the wars we ignited.
Memories replay in loops of razor wire,
What was our fire? Just fuel for the pyre.
I trace the cracks where your shadow once stood,
Bleedin’ from the wounds of a love misunderstood.
Town feels like a tomb, your ghost in the rain,
Stranded and shattered, chasin’ ghosts in the pain.
(Chorus)
Broken promises, they cut like glass!
Shattered pieces of our past!
You said forever, but forever lied!
Now I’m drownin’ in the tears I cried!
(Bridge )
Sky’s a fraud in azure, veilin’ the rage…
Storm brewin’ fierce, tearin’ loose from the cage…
Thought I knew your mask, thought we’d defy the fray!
But love’s a specter, slippin’ into gray!
No more bridges burned, no more lies to play—
This ghost is banished, time to walk away!
Broken promises, they cut like glass! (Cut like glass!)
Shattered pieces of our past! (Of our past!)
You said forever, but forever lied! (Forever lied!)
Now I’m risin’ from the tears I cried! (Tears I cried!)
Broken promises…
I’m healin’, I’m breakin’ free from the tide.

Broken Promises

[Verse]
Your laugh hits like a neon sign
I’m stuck here
Waiting in the line
Heart’s got a ticket
But it won’t get scanned
This ain’t the ride I had planned

[Chorus]
I’m stuck in the friend zone
Can’t find the exit
Can’t phone home
Your smile’s the light
I’m chasing it blind
But I’m stuck in the friend zone
And you don’t mind

[Verse 2]
Every text feels like a maze
You talk about love in a casual haze
I’m the shoulder
The back-up plan
Not the hero
Just the man

[Prechorus]
I want the spark
Not just the glow
But how to tell you
I don’t know

[Chorus]
I’m stuck in the friend zone
Can’t find the exit
Can’t phone home
Your smile’s the light
I’m chasing it blind
But I’m stuck in the friend zone
And you don’t mind

[Bridge]
Let me crash through the static walls
Let me break the unspoken calls
I’m screaming in silence
It’s tearing me down
But you’re dancing
Spinning around

Stuck in the Friend Zone

Verse 1]
We’d laugh under streetlights, your hair in the breeze,
Coffee stains on our sleeves, secrets we’d tease.
I’d rehearse in the mirror a thousand times through,
Words stuck in my throat like a knot I couldn’t undo.
You’d smile that way that lit up the gray,
And I’d freeze in the moment, let the chance slip away.
Now the radio plays our song in the rain,
And I’m haunted by what-ifs, drivin’ me insane.

[Pre-Chorus]
Heart poundin’ like thunder, but I played it so cool,
Afraid of the fallin’, played the fool.
One breath, one beat, and the door swung wide,
But I stood in the shadows, let you walk on by…

[Chorus]
Oh, the one that got away, she was my spark in the dark!
Slipped through my fingers like a shot in the heart!
If I’d found the courage, spoken truth from the start,
We could’ve been forever, not tearin’ apart!
Now I’m chasin’ echoes down these empty streets,
Regrettin’ the silence, the words I didn’t speak!
The one that got away, yeah, you’re the ghost in my veins,
Burnin’ me up with the what could have been!
Oh-oh-oh! Whoa-oh-oh!  What could have been

[Verse 2]
Your laugh on the voicemail, I hit play one more time,
Friends say move on, but you’re etched in my mind.
I see you in strangers, in the songs that we shared,
A half-written story, left hangin’ in the air.
Packed up your dreams for a city so far,
Waved from the platform, under that scar.
I screamed in the quiet, “Don’t go, stay with me,”
But the train rolled on, and you set yourself free.

[Pre-Chorus]
The fear was a chain, wrapped tight ‘round my chest,
Stole all my chances, left me a mess.
One leap in the fire, and we’d both catch the flame,
But I hid in the safe, now I’m lost in the blame…

[Chorus]
Oh, the one that got away, she was my spark in the dark!
Slipped through my fingers like a shot in the heart!
If I’d found the courage, spoken truth from the start,
We could’ve been forever, not tearin’ apart!
Now I’m chasin’ echoes down these empty streets,
Regrettin’ the silence, the words I didn’t speak!
The one that got away, yeah, you’re the ghost in my veins,
Burnin’ me up with the what could have been!
Oh-oh-oh! Whoa-oh-oh! What could have been

[Bridge]
What if I’d grabbed your hand in the pourin’ downpour?
Said, “I love you” loud, right there on the floor?
No more hidin’, no more games in the night,
We’d rewrite the ending, make it feel right.
But time don’t rewind, and the courage came late,
Now I’m learnin’ to live with this beautiful ache!

[Final Chorus]
Oh, the one that got away, she was my spark in the dark! (Spark In the dark!)
Slipped through my fingers like a shot in the heart! (To the heart!)
If I’d found the courage, spoken truth from the start, (From the start!)
We could’ve been forever, not tearin’ apart!
Oh-oh-oh! Whoa-oh-oh! What could have been
Oh-oh-oh! Whoa-oh-oh! What could have been

What could have been

[Verse 1]
The mirror's a liar, the air is thick and cheap
I've been holding my breath just to fall asleep
Same sticky floors, same familiar ghosts
Chasing a high, getting close to the most
Dangerous kind of gold that glitters and goes dark
Leaving just the rhythm beating in my chest, a spark
Of something I used to know, fading in the haze
Lost in the glow of these terminal days.
[Pre-Chorus]
And the sequence keeps running, faster than I can think
One more filter sweep right to the brink
I know this rush, the gravity's strong
But I can't keep pretending this is where I belong.
[Chorus]
This is the last dance on the poison floor
I'm walking out now, I'm locking the door
Trading the flash for the long, slow sunrise
Gonna burn this shadow out of my eyes
No more chasing the light that goes dark,
Leaving just a memory, a static mark
Yeah, this time, I swear, this is where it all ends
The final track playing, for me and my friends.
[Verse 2]
The crowd moves in time, nobody sees the chains
The perfect illusion drowning out the pains
I see your face in the echo of the bass drum
A phantom addiction, telling me to come
Right back to the edge, where the feeling is numb
But the morning's a whisper, saying what I've become.
There's a cleaner frequency calling my name
Pulling me out of this chemical flame.
[Pre-Chorus]
And the sequence keeps running, faster than I can think
One more chord before I finally sink
I know this rush, the gravity's strong
But I can't keep pretending this is where I belong.
[Chorus]
This is the last dance on the poison floor
I'm walking out now, I'm locking the door
Trading the flash for the long, slow sunrise
Gonna burn this shadow out of my eyes
No more chasing the light that goes dark,
Leaving just a memory, a static mark
Yeah, this time, I swear, this is where it all ends
The final track playing, for me and my friends.

[Chorus]
This is the last dance on the poison floor
I'm walking out now, I'm locking the door
Trading the flash for the long, slow sunrise
Gonna burn this shadow out of my eyes
No more chasing the light that goes dark,
Leaving just a memory, a static mark
Yeah, this time, I swear, this is where it all ends
The final track playing, for me and my friends.
[Outro]
Last dance... 
No more...
