Verse 1:
I wake up where the quiet lives
Same ceiling, different state of mind
Time keeps moving like it always did
But I don’t feel it pass this time
I don’t replay what we used to say
I don’t circle what went wrong
It’s like my heart learned how to step away
Just to keep the lights on
Pre-Chorus:
I don’t feel the weight, I don’t feel the fall
I don’t feel the echo when I hear your name at all
And that should feel like progress, I suppose
But I don’t know
Chorus:
It’s quiet where you left me
Not peaceful, just still
I’m not breaking, I’m not bending
I just don’t feel
If healing sounds like silence
Why does it pull me down
I’m not falling apart
I’m just nowhere now
Verse 2:
I answer “good” without thinking twice
It lands easy, it sounds right
I learned how to speak in neutral tones
So nobody reads between the lines
I don’t flinch when your memory passes
I don’t chase what I lost
I just sit with the space you abandoned
Like I’m waiting on a thought
Pre-Chorus:
I don’t feel the rush, I don’t feel the sting
I don’t feel the ache of almost anything
I keep calling this peace, but it feels like a pause
I’m stuck in the cause
Chorus:
It’s quiet where you left me
No shadow, no sign
I’m not shattered, I’m not empty
I’m just out of time
If healing sounds like silence
Why does it feel so loud
I’m not falling apart
I’m just nowhere now
Bridge:
Maybe this is what they mean
When the storm finally lets you breathe
But nobody warned me calm
Could feel this incomplete
I don’t miss the chaos
I don’t miss the fight
I just miss the feeling
Of feeling alive
Final Chorus:
It’s quiet where you left me
No answers, no proof
I don’t hurt, I don’t heal
I just exist in the truth
If this is where I’m standing
Before I feel again
I’ll stay here in the silence
Till something lets me in
Outro:
I’m still here
Just waiting on the break
