Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I used to be your warm-up act, your opening show

Pulling scarves from my sleeve just to watch your light glow

You'd cry at the Golden Buzzers, say the world still had magic left

Now I'm standing on a stage alone, of all the stages we have left

I sang off-key in the kitchen, made a fool just to hear you breathe

Did every impression, every bad trick up my sleeve

But some dark water runs too deep for a fool to swim

I was so busy performing, I couldn't see you drowning in him—

In the silence, in the silence

[Chorus]

Now I'm voiceless, screaming at the walls you left behind

Voiceless, singing to a bed where you used to lie

I promised you forever, but forever didn't know

That the girl who believed in underdogs was fighting one alone

I'm voiceless, voiceless

With a heart too loud to hold

[Verse 2]

Your good days were summer, your bad days were mines I'd walk through

Carrying my one-man show, hoping this bit would get through

You'd laugh like breaking daylight, throw your head back and say "stop"

Now I practice lines in empty rooms where the punchlines never drop

I should've called your mother, should've driven through the night

Should've been the help you needed instead of just the light

That made you smile when you could, when the darkness would allow

But I was so damn sure my love was strong enough somehow

To reach you, to reach you

[Chorus]

Now I'm voiceless, screaming at the walls you left behind

Voiceless, singing to a bed where you used to lie

I promised you forever, but forever didn't know

That the girl who believed in underdogs was fighting one alone

I'm voiceless, voiceless

With a heart too loud to hold

[Bridge]

Oh, baby — I still watch them without you

The nervous ones, the shaking ones, the ones with nothing but hope

I root for them like you taught me, but the magic's just a mirror

Of a girl who saw the good in everyone

Except the one behind her own eyes

And I can't forgive the Tuesday

Can't forgive the quiet in that door

Can't forgive myself for thinking love was louder than the war

You were fighting

[Final Chorus]

I'm voiceless, screaming at the walls you left behind

Voiceless, singing to a bed where you used to lie

You said everyone deserves someone in their corner

But who was in yours when the lights went down?

I'm voiceless, voiceless

With your name the only sound

[Outro]

Voiceless... voiceless...

But I promise you, my love

If there's a stage beyond this one

I'm saving you a seat

Right there in that perfect groove

Where you carved out six years

Of believing in the broken

I'll be waiting

I'll be waiting

Not voiceless

Just learning how to sing again

For both of us
