[Verse 1]
You turn your shoulder
I turn to stone
Every time I reach
You let go
Copper taste of every failed confession
You blink
I vanish in the crowd
I joke it off
You call it “fine”
But your eyes move past
Like I’m a sign
You don’t read
Just rush right by
I’m screaming soft on the inside
[Chorus]
I keep cracking my heart on your silence
Bleeding for a touch you never take
Every time I ask for a little kindness
You stamp my name into the flame
You’re right there
But you’re out of my hands
Like I’m made of glass
You just watch me crash
I keep cracking my heart on your silence
And you don’t even feel the shake
[Verse 2]
Cold replies
Like late-night rain
Dripping down
The same old pain
I hold out my arms like a tired suggestion
You turn away like you’re bored again
You say “it’s nothing”
I feel everything
Biting down hard
On what I mean
Every door I knock just slams
Echoes laughing in my chest
[Chorus]
I keep cracking my heart on your silence
Bleeding for a touch you never take
Every time I ask for a little kindness
You stamp my name into the flame
You’re right there
But you’re out of my hands
Like I’m made of glass
You just watch me crash
I keep cracking my heart on your silence
And you don’t even feel the shake
[Bridge]
Did I fade out
Or did you tune out? (hey)
Am I just noise
You learn to drown?
I’m begging loud
In a dead connection
Wired to a ghost
Who feels like flesh
[Chorus]
I keep cracking my heart on your silence
Bleeding for a touch you never take
Every time I ask for a little kindness
You stamp my name into the flame
You’re right there
But you’re out of my hands
Like I’m made of glass
You just watch me crash
I keep cracking my heart on your silence
Until there’s nothing left to break
