Emotionless

Verse 1
He learned early how to hold it in
How to keep his hands steady
Smile like nothing’s wrong
Say he’s fine when he’s barely ready
There’s a storm in his chest
But he wears it like a coat
Buttoned up, head down
Hoping nobody knows
Pre-Chorus
Every feeling wants a voice
But he buries the sound
Strength feels like silence
When you grow up that way
Chorus
He’s fighting with his emotions
In the dead of the night
Trying to be a man
Trying not to lose the fight
He’s bleeding without a mark
Carrying scars no one sees
Yeah, he’s fighting with his emotions
And they’re winning, quietly
Verse 2
Anger talks faster than fear
But sadness lasts longer
Love shows up uninvited
Makes him feel weaker, not stronger
He keeps his heart on lockdown
Like it’s something unsafe
But the more he resists it
The more it breaks
Pre-Chorus
He mistakes control for healing
And pain for truth
Calls survival a victory
But it’s just getting through
Chorus
He’s fighting with his emotions
Every breath, every day
Swallowing words that could save him
Letting them rot away
He stands like a fortress
But the walls are paper-thin
Yeah, he’s fighting with his emotions
And losing from within
Bridge
Nobody taught him how to feel
Without apologizing
How to let the tears fall
Without calling it failing
He’s tired of being “strong”
Tired of holding the line
When did surviving replace
Being alive?
[Break (soft)]
If he said what hurts
Would someone stay?
Final Chorus
He’s fighting with his emotions
But he’s starting to see
That maybe the real surrender
Is honesty
He loosens his grip on the armor
Lets the truth in
Yeah, he’s fighting with his emotions
But tonight, he lets them win
Outro
The bravest thing he’s ever done
Is feel it all—and breathe
