“The Quiet War”

Verse 1
I built these walls out of mercy and pain
Carried your weight like a permanent chain
Opened my doors, let the devil walk in
You wore my trust like a second skin

You fed me doubt, you twisted the truth
Turned every wound into my fucking proof
Told me I’m broken, I’m nothing alone
While you were feeding on everything I own

Pre-Chorus
Every word was a lie I believed
Every scar was a debt I received

Chorus
No more taking my soul away
No more games that you fucking play
You fed on my heart, now I’m cutting you off
You don’t get another piece of me

No more living inside your war
I see the truth, I see you now
Kindness is free, but I’m locking the door
You don’t get another piece of me

Verse 2
Silent battles, no blood on the floor
Just sleepless nights and emotional war
Every apology wasn’t mine
You moved the blame every single time

Gaslight fire, rewriting my past
Made every moment feel like it wouldn’t last
But something inside finally broke your hold
Pain turned iron where my heart was gold

Pre-Chorus
I was drowning just to keep you alive
Now I’m done trying to survive

Chorus
No more taking my soul away
No more games that you fucking play
You fed on my heart, now I’m cutting you off
You don’t get another piece of me

No more living inside your war
I see the truth, I see you now
Kindness is free, but I’m locking the door
You don’t get another piece of me

Bridge (half-time, darker)
You called me weak
You called me blind
But I was carrying you the whole damn time

You needed my pain
You needed my light
Now you’re nothing without my fight

I’m done.

Final Chorus (big, anthemic)
No more taking my soul away
No more games that you fucking play
You fed on my heart, now I’m cutting you off
You don’t get another piece of me

No more living inside your war
I buried the ghost you were before
Kindness is free, but access is not
You don’t get another piece of me

Outro (spoken/growled)
The war’s not over.
But you’re not in it anymore.
