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?

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
