No One There

I don’t feel numb, I just ache inside,

Tears I hide, nowhere to hide.

I keep it calm till the cracks all show,

I break in silence — no one knows.

(…no one knows…)

I want someone — but not just anyone,

I want a soul that won’t come undone.

Every shadow looks the same,

Every promise fades to pain.

And I whisper to the walls again,

“Why am I here? Why does it rain?”

(why does it rain… why does it rain…)

I try to smile, but it burns my face,

I’m tired of waiting for a safe place.

No arms, no voice, just air —

I’m reaching out, but no one’s there.

So I cry, yeah I cry,

’Cause I can’t keep this inside.

All this noise, all this ache,

All this love I can’t remake.

You can’t see, but I swear —

I’m still here, just no one there.

(just no one there…)

Every night I stare at screens,

Empty faces, empty scenes.

They talk, they fade, they don’t stay,

They say “you’ll be fine” — walk away.

But I still hope, even when it hurts,

That someone might see the cracks, not the dirt.

(see me… just see me…)

It explodes in tears, in pain I drown,

But somehow I rise before I’m down.

Broken, bleeding, still I stand —

I wipe my face with my own hand.

’Cause maybe that’s what living means,

To cry alone but keep the dream.

So I cry, yeah I cry,

But I’m still breathing tonight.

All this ache, all this fire,

All this heart that won’t expire.

No one’s here, but I swear —

I still care, I’m still there.

(yeah… still there…)

I don’t feel numb, I just ache inside,

But I’m still alive… still alive.
