Verse 1
We burned the house down with what we didn’t say
Ash in the corners of an almost-prayer
Your eyes stayed calm while your mouth went cold
Like truth gets heavier the less it’s told
I learned your silence had a sharper edge
Than every word we ever used as lead
Pre-Chorus
You didn’t slam the door
You just let it close
That’s how I knew
This one was final
Chorus
The quiet is louder than the fight
When nobody’s wrong and nobody’s right
No broken glass, no screaming goodbye
Just two hearts folding in real time
You don’t have to raise your voice to leave
Some endings whisper perfectly
Yeah the quiet is louder than the fight
And it echoes every night
Verse 2
We used to talk like the future owed us grace
Now every room feels wider than the space
Your laugh still hangs in the air like smoke
I breathe it in but I start to choke
I replay moments we didn’t defend
When love got tired of trying to mend
Pre-Chorus
You didn’t curse my name
Didn’t throw blame
You just stopped reaching
That hurt worse
Chorus
The quiet is louder than the fight
When nobody’s wrong and nobody’s right
No shattered plates, no last words cried
Just distance learning how to survive
You don’t have to bleed to feel defeat
Some wounds never make a sound when they leave
Yeah the quiet is louder than the fight
And it stays when the noise has died
Bridge
Maybe peace is just another way to lose
When nobody wins and nothing’s bruised
I’d take the war if it meant you stayed
But you chose calm and walked away
Final Chorus
The quiet is louder than the fight
It don’t fade with the morning light
No villain here, no one to blame
Just love that learned a different name
If silence had a battle cry
It’s everything we didn’t try
Yeah the quiet is louder than the fight
And it tells the truth every time
Outro
No scars to show
No flags raised high
Just a quiet that won’t say goodbye
