[Verse 1] I’ve been staring at the ceiling Counting cracks like they’re my sins Every night feels like a warning Of the war I hold within I wear a smile like armor But it’s paper-thin at best I scream inside the silence But it never leaves my chest [Pre-Chorus] I’m not okay, but I’m still here Fighting shadows, swallowing fear [Chorus] Can you hear me breaking? Underneath the noise I’m drowning in the quiet Losing my own voice I don’t need saving Just someone who’ll stay While I carry the weight of the silence Day after day [Verse 2] I’ve been walking through the ashes Of the bridges I let burn Tried to run from all the damage But the pain still finds its turn I’ve forgotten how to feel things Without bracing for the fall But I’m still reaching through the darkness Trying to climb these walls [Pre-Chorus] I’m not okay, but I won’t hide There’s still a spark I keep inside [Chorus] Can you hear me breaking? Underneath the noise I’m drowning in the quiet Losing my own voice I don’t need saving Just someone who’ll stay While I carry the weight of the silence Day after day [Bridge] If I fall apart tonight Will you hold the pieces tight? I don’t need the perfect words Just don’t let me disappear [Final Chorus] Can you hear me breaking? Underneath the noise I’m still here, still breathing Still searching for my voice I don’t need saving But I need a friend While I carry the weight of the silence Until the end
