[Verse 1]
I keep the lights off, ‘cause the silence feels safe
But the echoes in my head still whisper your name
I’ve been out, I’ve been laughing, I’ve been playing the game
But every time it gets real, I pull back, I escape
[Pre-Chorus]
I should’ve moved on, I should be fine
But nobody gets me the way you did, not this time
And I hate that I’m scared to let somebody in
Like I’m stuck in a loop I can’t break, can’t begin
[Chorus]
I'm falling through the cracks of my own mind
Wanting love, but I keep drawing the same lines
I get close, then I push them away
Tell myself that I’m better this way
But every night, I feel the weight of the space you left behind
[Verse 2]
I hold my own hand when the nights get too cold
Try to tell myself I’m better off alone
But the ghost of your touch lingers under my skin
And I wonder if I’ll ever feel whole again
[Pre-Chorus]
I should’ve moved on, I should be fine
But nobody gets me the way you did, not this time
And I hate that I’m scared to let somebody in
Like I’m stuck in a loop I can’t break, can’t begin
[Chorus ]
I'm falling through the cracks of my own mind
Wanting love, but I keep drawing the same lines
I get close, then I push them away
Tell myself that I’m better this way
But every night, I feel the weight of the space you left behind
[Bridge]
Maybe I’m waiting for someone to break through
To call out my fears, to prove me untrue
But what if I never love again like I loved you?
What if no one ever gets me the way that you do?
*[Final Chorus – More Desperate & Emotional]
I'm falling through the cracks of my own mind
Wanting love, but I keep drawing the same lines
I get close, then I push them away
Tell myself that I’m better this way
But every night, I feel the weight of the space you left behind
[Outro ]
I keep the lights off… ‘cause the silence feels safe
But the echoes in my head still whisper your name…
