[Verse 1]
Alarm on the floor
I don’t even move
Scroll through the wreckage
Like it’s just old news
Suit up the bruises
Hide the shaking hands
Hold up the ceiling
Like that was the plan
[Pre-Chorus]
They say “be stronger”
But they never stay
Just leave us bleeding
Then look away
[Chorus]
We break and nobody sees it
We scream and they call it a phase
A man only matters when he’s needed
Then they walk away
We drown and nobody saves us
We burn and they’re fanning the flames
Love has conditions
Terms and cages
And no one knows our names
[Verse 2]
Smile for the camera
“Yeah
I’m doing fine”
Swallow the thunder
Till it cracks my spine
Every confession
Turned into a joke
They quote their heroes
While I choke on smoke
[Pre-Chorus]
They want a statue
Not a shaking soul
They take the pieces
And call it whole
[Chorus]
We break and nobody sees it
We scream and they call it a phase
A man only matters when he’s needed
Then they walk away
We drown and nobody saves us
We burn and they’re fanning the flames
Love has conditions
Terms and cages
And no one knows our names
[Bridge]
Who holds us
When the weight gets heavy?
Who hears us
When our hands are empty?
Who stays
When the mask falls off?
(Who stays?)
When all we can say is
“Enough… enough…”
[Chorus]
We break and nobody sees it
We scream and they call it a phase
A man only matters when he’s needed
Then they walk away
We drown and nobody saves us
We burn and they’re fanning the flames
If this is love
I’d rather be faithless
Than die in this shame
[Outro]
We break and nobody sees it
We bleed and carry the blame
We walk this world like we’re weightless
Like no one knows our names
