[Verse 1]
I left the light on like it might bring me back
But the room's just cold and the walls still crack
Every word I said still hangs like smoke
And I breathe it in until I choke
My hands shake when I sit too still
Like there's something buried I forgot to feel
I keep pretending that I’ve moved on
But I flinch at every quiet song
[Chorus]
There's nothing in the silence
But I keep listening anyway
I scream inside with violence
And no one hears a thing I say
They call it healing, I call it hiding
If I’m surviving, why’s it feel like dying?
There’s nothing in the silence
But I stay
[Verse 2]
You wouldn’t know it just by looking
But I’m stitched with broken things
I laugh too loud to drown the static
And I bite down hard when I start to sink
I’ve burned through every friend I trusted
Told myself it’s self-defense
But now the mirror won’t look back
And I don’t know what that reflects
[Chorus]
There's nothing in the silence
But I keep listening anyway
I scream inside with violence
And no one hears a thing I say
They call it healing, I call it hiding
If I’m surviving, why’s it feel like dying?
There’s nothing in the silence
But I stay
[Bridge]
I’m not waiting for a light to save me
I’ve stopped believing I’m worth the cost
But if you ever feel this empty
At least you’ll know you’re not lost
[Final Chorus]
There’s nothing in the silence
But maybe that’s where I belong
If I can’t fix what’s broken
Then maybe silence can be strong
They call it healing, I call it fighting
If I’m alive, why’s it still so frightening?
There’s nothing in the silence
But I…
I stay
Stahlkrieg
