The quiet didn't heal me
It hollowed me out
The room is quiet but my mind is loud
Memories whisper when lights go out
I close my eyes but you're still there
And every breath an empty air
Your voice used to calm my fears
Now silence is all I hear
Rooms feel bigger without your sound
I'm lost where love once lived around I talk to shadows late at night
Pretend I'm strong, pretend I'm fine
But every word you never said cuts deeper than goodbye
Silence
hits my heart
Slow and deep inside
No fights, no last words
Just love that quietly died
I scream without a sound I fall apart alone
Worrying that you're gone I still check my phone sometimes
Like maybe you'll change your mind
But the space between our text fields are
the earth and lies
You left without explaining why
Left me with an answer,
cries I wouldn't face the truth in pain If you would just try
If silence is your way of peace Why does it destroy mine?
I'd rather hear the words from you Than hear nothing all the time
Silence hits my heart Sends me piece by piece
I'm lost where love once felt like home
Maybe one day the quiet won't hurt me anymore
Tonight I'm bleeding slowly
From a silence
I can't ignore
