In The Silence Of The Night

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

And now the silence screams your name

While I slowly fall apart

The walls inside this house know me

Better than you ever did

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”

Never me and you...

Oh-oh, oh-oh...

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

And I hate how I still search

For your reflection in every corner here

Even knowing the love I created

Never existed for you

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”

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

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”

In the silence of the night... me...
