Open wound

[Verse 1]
Days turn to months, months into years
Thought you'd call, thought you’d care
I don’t ask for much, just a sign
But I guess silence became your line
It all fades slow, and I stand still
Same old house on this same old hill

[Chorus]
It takes three seconds just to say hello
One more second, to look in my soul
Say “you’re fine” one last time
So polite, but dead inside
You use your breath, but not your mind
I missed your smile, do you miss mine?
Say nothing… all the time

[Verse 2]
Does it always fall on me to try?
Feels like love just passed me by
I’ve been stabbed by empty space
Guess we both lost this little race
A phone works both ways—oh wait, it does
But it rings less now than it ever was

[Chorus]
It takes three seconds just to say hello
One more second, then I’m alone
I’m guilty too—I’ve walked away
soulless words, half-hearted days
You use your breath to pass the time
But never truth, and never mine
Say nothing… all the time

[Bridge]
I wish I reached out more, it’s true
Wish you’d have done the same thing too
But we both just fade away
In this stupid little game

[Final Verse – Gospel Shift]
But I still pray for peace someday
Maybe love finds a better way
If grace can reach the worst of me
Then maybe there’s still hope to be

[Outro]
It doesn’t have to end this way
But if it does… go have a nice day
