Falling Through Silence

(Intro)

You speak but I don’t hear the words,

Like echoes fading through the storm.

We used to be a louder fire,

Now we’re just trying to stay warm.

I trace your shadow in the sheets,

Like maybe it’ll lead me back.

But every step I take toward you,

Feels like I’m walking off the track.

I know we meant well, I know we tried,

But we’re dancing circles in our minds.

It’s just a little bit broken,

But I still believe in love.

Even when the sky is falling,

And we’ve had more than enough.

We’re holding on to something

That we can’t quite define—

Still falling through the silence,

But your hand is touching mine

I remember laughing in the rain,

Like nothing ever touched our flame.

Now we sit in different corners,

Trying not to place the blame.

I feel your heart behind the wall,

A rhythm I can almost reach.

But every word becomes a battle,

And every hug feels like a speech.

We’re not the same, but that’s okay—

I just don’t want to fade away.

It’s just a little bit broken,

But I still believe in love.

Even when the sky is falling,

And we’ve had more than enough.

We’re holding on to something

That we can’t quite define—

Still falling through the silence,

But your hand is touching mine.

So maybe it’s not perfect,

Maybe we’ve both changed.

But I’d rather hurt beside you

Than feel nothing in your place.

If it’s over, let it shatter,

But don’t pretend it didn’t matter.

I still see you in my dreams,

Whispering in golden beams.

If we go, just know I tried—

You were the hope I held inside.

It’s just a little bit broken,

But I still believe in love.

Even when we’re barely breathing,

Even when push comes to shove.

We’re reaching through the quiet,

Where the truth and fear collide—

Still falling through the silence,

But your soul is close to mine.
