(Verse 1)
The TV is on, but | hear no sound.
Pale blue light is scattered all around.
The clock on the wall is ticking too loud.
Cold skin, heavy heart, lost in the crowd.
(Pre-Chorus)
I'm chasing the noise just to blur your face.
Terrified of the quiet in this empty space.
The radio static is all that remains.
Ever since my heart stopped singing your name.
(Chorus)
'Cause the silence between the songs hurts the most.
Walking through a world that is losing its ghost.
You used to be my sweetest melody.
Now you're just an echo haunting me.
Yeah, the quiet is tearing me apart.
And the music won't start.
(Verse 2)
Scrolling through pictures of "baby blue".
Eyes wide open, staring at the view.
Your hoodie's still faded on my bedroom floor.
It smells like you, but it doesn't talk no more.
(Chorus)
'Cause the silence between the songs hurts the most.
Walking through a world that is losing its ghost.
You used to be my sweetest melody.
Now you're just an echo haunting me.
Yeah, the quiet is tearing me apart.
And the music won't start.
(Bridge)
(Soft, almost whispered)
Turn it up, please just make it loud.
Before the loneliness swallows me out.
I don't wanna think, I don't wanna feel.
Just let the rhythm make it unreal.
(Chorus)
'Cause the silence between the songs hurts the most.
Walking through a world that is losing its ghost.
You used to be my sweetest melody.
Now you're just an echo haunting me.
Yeah, the quiet is tearing me apart.
And the music won't start.
(Bridge)
(Soft, almost whispered)
Turn it up, please just make it loud.
Before the loneliness swallows me out.
I don't wanna think, I don't wanna feel.
Just let the rhythm make it unreal.
(Chorus)
'Cause the silence between the songs hurts the most.
Walking through a world that is losing its ghost.
You used to be my sweetest melody.
Now you're just an echo haunting me.
Yeah, the quiet is tearing me apart.
And the music won't start.
(Outro)
(Stripped back, just piano)
Just static...
And then...
Silence.
