[Verse 1]
White rooms
Pink veins in the walls
You draw hearts
Over all of my scars
Static in your stare
Like you’re hacked from afar
Say “it’s fine”
But you shake like a car alarm
You lace your fingers
Through my doubt
Soft voice loaded
With a hundred shouts
Your halo
Is sharpened wire
You smile
While you set me on fire (hey)
[Chorus]
Wear your crown of silence
Like it doesn’t weigh a ton
You say you’re just tired
While you’re blocking out the sun
Every word you never speak
Still cuts me open just as deep
You wear your crown of silence
And it’s crushing both of us
[Verse 2]
Cold glow
On your porcelain face
Blue code dripping
Down the chat we waste
You ghost me
From a meter away
Pink nails tapping
On the glass of the day
I rap my anger
In a tight little knot
Spit out truths
That you already forgot
You’re scrolling through
Our apathy feed
While I bleed
In your cancel queue (woah)
[Chorus]
Wear your crown of silence
Like it doesn’t weigh a ton
You say you’re just tired
While you’re blocking out the sun
Every word you never speak
Still cuts me open just as deep
You wear your crown of silence
And it’s crushing both of us
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to piano and strings, distant choir]
If I scream in your kingdom
Will it glitch through the throne?
If I burn all these questions
Will you feel less alone?
Take off that quiet
Let it fall to the floor
I don’t want a perfect statue
I just want you raw, unsure (yeah)
[Chorus]
Wear your crown of silence
Let it crack, let it rust
Say the things that terrify you
Spill them out in the dust
Every word you choke inside
Just feeds the shadows in your mind
Drop that crown of silence
Or it’s killing both of us
[Outro]
White rooms
Pink stains on the tiles
We stand there shaking
Then you speak for the first time
Crown on the ground
Like a broken device
Your voice, unstable
But alive, alive (oh yeah)
