[Verse 1] If you couldn’t hear me calling (And I screamed) Would you notice how I strain All the pressure in my chest Keeps repeating through the pain If you saw the way I tremble When the night begins to press Would you reach to pull me closer Or decide I’m too much stress [Pre-Chorus] I’m bound to this silence But I’m louder than I have been Every heartbeat keeps on warning Every time becomes more daunting [Chorus] And I fall Into arms that never hold Into promises that always fold Into feelings slipping wide apart Like a story left untold I still call To the ones who fade away To the hearts that never stay I wonder why The lost don’t respond to my love I wonder why The lost don’t respond to my love [Verse 2] I tried speaking to the broken Just to show them they remain But the truth inside their breathing Is a thing they can’t explain So they pulled back from the moment Like it cut into their skin And they blamed me for the weight Like I forced the world in [Pre-Chorus 2] Still I keep my hands uncovered Even when they step aside I’m the ache they never mention I’m the thing they can’t really hide [Chorus 2] And I fall Into arms that never hold Into promises that always fold Into feelings slipping wide apart Like a story left untold I still call To the ones who fade away To the hearts that won’t stay But the lost don’t feel the warmth I give They only fear what I can give [Bridge – stripped, breathy] If you couldn’t hear me (and I screamed…) Would you notice me in pain (In pain) If you could see me and I was hurting Would you hold me in your arms Or would you throw me away (throw me away…) [Verse 3] If you saw the way I’m hurting You’d know running isn’t me I stay steady in the arguing Even when they didn’t choose me I keep giving without asking Though my voice has worn away Still I offer something no one else could begin To give when no one would ever really step in [Final Chorus] So I fall But I rise after every burn With strength from every dark turn I’m the pulse inside both of us I’m the thing they can’t seem to hold firm And I call Even when the lost try look away Even when the lost always never stay The lost don’t answer to love like mine Every time But I still give all my love I still give it all away [Outro – SEL//VOID] And I wonder why Why the lost don’t respond to my love The lost don’t respond to my love ©️ Copyright Elucid33 All Rights Reserved 2026
