[IN THE SILENCE OF THE NIGHT — Lily]
[Verse 1]
Nothing can protect me
When all the feelings come
Like a wave crashing into my chest
I feel the weight of loneliness
I can hear my heartbeat
I feel all the ghosts
All the memories, all of our past
You left without looking back
Abandoned all our dreams
I’m lying on the floor of this damn kitchen
The same place where all of this began
You left me here
Like every mistake was mine
You didn’t look back
No, you didn’t look back
You left when I needed you the most
You abandoned all our dreams
[Pre-Chorus]
And now the silence screams your name
While I slowly fall apart
The walls inside this house know me
Better than you ever did
[Chorus]
In the silence of the night
I can hear my broken mind
Every shadow looks like you
Every memory cuts right through my chest
I was holding on alone
Trying to turn this house into a home
But you were already gone
Before I realized
There was never “me and you”
[Post-Chorus]
Never me and you...
Oh-oh, oh-oh...
[Verse 2]
Now I can finally feel the fear
Now I understand you were never the right one
Now I look at all the photographs
And I see I was always alone
You were never here
You were never there
This whole dream was created in my head
I believed I was living a dream for two
But I was living a nightmare alone
There was never an “us”
There was never you and me
[Pre-Chorus]
And I hate how I still search
For your reflection in every corner here
Even knowing the love I created
Never existed for you
[Chorus]
In the silence of the night
I can hear my broken mind
Every shadow looks like you
Every memory cuts right through my chest
I was holding on alone
Trying to turn this house into a home
But you were already gone
Before I realized
There was never “me and you”
[Bridge]
Maybe I loved the idea
More than who you really were
Maybe I stayed because I was scared
To face the world without your words
Now the kitchen light still shines
But my heart has gone dark
And all that’s left tonight
Are pieces of what we never were
[Final Chorus]
In the silence of the night
I finally see the truth this time
You were never by my side
I was fighting for a lie
Now the echoes fade away
And I’m learning how to stay
With myself inside this pain
Without you
Without “me and you”
[Outro]
In the silence of the night... me...
