Lonely

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I keep the lights off… ‘cause the silence feels safe

But the echoes in my head still whisper your name…
