He wakes up to silence, heavier than chains
Her name on his lips, but it only brings pain
The mirror don’t recognize the man in his eyes
Just a ghost in the flesh, learning how to survive
Coffee goes cold, like the love that she left
Every promise they made now a permanent dent
He smiles for the world, but it’s paper-thin
’Cause nobody sees how he’s losing within
He keeps telling himself, “Just make it through today”
But the night always comes, and it won’t stay away
He’s still breathing, but he’s dying inside
Heart full of scars, soul barely alive
He screams in the dark, but swallows his pride
Still breathing… but he’s dying inside
Her shadow still dances in the corners of home
Every laugh they once shared now echoes alone
He scrolls through the past like it might change the end
Like loving her harder could make her come back again
The bed feels too big, the nights feel too long
He replays every moment, wondering what went wrong
He gave her his all, left nothing to hide
Now he’s paying the price, piece by piece, inside
They say time heals wounds, but time just reminds
Him of everything lost and the love left behind
He’s still breathing, but he’s dying inside
Heart full of scars, soul barely alive
He screams in the dark, but swallows his pride
Still breathing… but he’s dying inside
If love is a war, then he lost every fight
Laid down his heart and she walked out the night
He’d trade every breath just to feel her near
But all he’s got left is regret and fear
He’s still breathing, but he’s dying inside
Living for others, just trying to survive
One day he might heal, but tonight he just cries
Still breathing…
Still breathing…
But he’s dying inside
