Detonate My Quiet

[Verse 1]
I keep my teeth on every word
Bite it back
Yeah
Swallow the hurt
Smile like nothing’s tearing through
But every joke just sounds like you
[Pre-Chorus]
You light the fuse with a sideways glance
All my calm cracks open in your hands
Say “it’s fine
” but it shakes my frame
You say my name
And I’m in the flame (hey!)
[Chorus]
Detonate my quiet
Blow my calm apart
You’re the match inside my ribcage
Sparking through the dark
If I’m built like silence
You’re the screaming start
Detonate my quiet
Rip the stillness from my heart
[Verse 2]
I tape my thoughts to the back of my throat
Hope they drown before they float
But you read every tremor in my jaw
Drag every hidden bruise into your law
[Pre-Chorus]
You twist the knife with a tender touch
Every “are you okay?” is way too much
Say “I’m good
” but I’m fraying thin
You pull me in
Let the blast begin (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Detonate my quiet
Blow my calm apart
You’re the match inside my ribcage
Sparking through the dark
If I’m built like silence
You’re the screaming start
Detonate my quiet
Rip the stillness from my heart
[Bridge]
I don’t want peace if it means you’re gone
Let the cracks run wide
Let the fault lines yawn
If this is how we fall apart
Then push the button in my heart
[Chorus]
Detonate my quiet
Blow my calm apart
You’re the match inside my ribcage
Sparking through the dark
If I’m built like silence
You’re the screaming start
Detonate my quiet
Rip the stillness from my heart (from my heart)
