**How Do You Like the Silence**
*35 BPM • Dark Dramatic Blues Horrorcore Trap*
---
[Intro – low piano, distant wind, slow heavy trap pulse]
How do you like the silence…
the one that followed me…
---
[Verse 1]
When that “give a damn” broke
and I packed my shit and took my leave
Did it stretch on and on
did it bring this so-called peace
Did it make it all better for you
like you seemed to believe
Do you miss the things I did at all
do you miss me in your bed
so willing to conform for you
Does my voice still ring in your head
saying “I just want to matter to you”
but you chose to ignore me instead
---
[Chorus]
How do you like the silence
the one I left behind
Did it wrap around your nights
the way you said it would
Or does it just sit there empty
proving nothing ever could
---
[Verse 2]
Don’t call me crazy
the word doesn’t quite fit
Laid back and chill
till provoked
then I began to sweat
All of the little shit you didn’t do
and all of the shit you seemed to forget
Me and my needs
too big
in this small-ass room
that is your head
---
[Bridge – slower, almost whispered over the kick]
I asked for nothing
then one thing
and when it stayed unanswered
I finally stopped performing
Now the silence is yours
long and clean
and I wonder
if it still feels like peace
or just the sound
of what you lost
---
[Outro – fading, cold]
How do you like the silence…
the one that followed me…
when I finally
took my leave.
