[Verse 1]
The porch light's on, but you ain't home,
Your shadow lingers, I'm here alone.
The clock keeps ticking, slow as rain,
Each second heavier with this pain.
[Prechorus]
It's not the slamming doors or fiery fights,
It's the quiet ache of sleepless nights.
[Chorus]
We're pulling apart the hard way,
No shouting, no words to say.
Just the silence carving deep,
A love we couldn't keep.
The hard way—it's how we fade away.
[Verse 2]
Your coffee cup still on the shelf,
Your scent clings like a ghost itself.
The radio hums our favorite song,
But even the melody feels wrong.
[Prechorus]
No storm, no wreck, just a steady drift,
A heartache slow as a river shift.
[Chorus]
We're pulling apart the hard way,
No shouting, no words to say.
Just the silence carving deep,
A love we couldn't keep.
The hard way—it's how we fade away.
