(Verse 1)
Came from a place where the walls felt tight
Anger in my chest, couldn’t sleep at night
Felt alone even when I wasn’t by myself
Like my whole world stuck on a broken shelf
Every word hit heavy, every silence loud
Tried to act strong, but I was breaking down
Didn’t know where to go, didn’t know who to trust
Everything felt fake, everything felt dust
(Verse 2)
You were in your room, shut off from the light
Fighting your demons in the dead of night
World went quiet when she walked away
But you found yourself in that empty space
Turned all that pain into something strong
Didn’t fold under it, you carried on
Now I see you different, calm and clear
Like you built your peace from the things you feared
(Chorus)
Now we sit in the silence, let the past fade out
No need for words, we don’t gotta shout
Pain still there but it don’t control
Got a little more light in a heavy soul
From alone to together, we found a way
Through the darkest nights to a brighter day
Yeah we both got scars, yeah we both got smoke
But we found our peace in the words unspoken
(Verse 3)
You don’t say much, but I understand
Every look you give, every steady hand
You showed me strength don’t mean you fight
Sometimes it’s just making it through the night
Taught me how to breathe when my chest felt tight
How to face the dark without losing light
Not by yelling, not by force
But by staying steady, staying on course
(Bridge)
We don’t run from it, we just sit and face it
All that pain, yeah we had to trace it
Turned our past into something real
Not just wounds, but a way to heal
(Chorus)
Now we sit in the silence, let the past fade out
No need for words, we don’t gotta shout
Pain still there but it don’t control
Got a little more light in a heavy soul
From alone to together, we found a way
Through the darkest nights to a brighter day
Yeah we both got scars, yeah we both got smoke
But we found our peace in the words unspoken
(Outro)
Used to feel lost, now I feel seen
Somewhere in between who I was and who I’ll be
And if I make it out, if I finally cope
It started right here… in that quiet smoke
