Song Title: Liquid Heart [Intro] (Soft, echoing piano or distant strings, voice barely above a whisper) Numb… disconnected… Walls where a heartbeat used to be Everything I touch turns cold Tell me, how do I believe? [Verse 1] Pieces scattered on the floor, I stopped counting long ago Every promise cut like glass, every “forever” just for show I built my armor out of scars, sealed the cracks with silent tears Now my heart’s a ghost inside me, drowning in its own fears It was never protected, left open to the rain So it dissolved into liquid, running through my veins Absorbed into the marrow, poison in my blood Now I flinch at every kindness, can’t tell poison from love [Chorus] I don’t wanna love somebody, no, I swore I’d never try This heart’s a melted river, too broken to survive But God, I miss that feeling—the warmth that used to glow A touch that turned me molten, even as it laid me low Love lasted for a second, then left me cold and deadened Still I ache for connection… even if it leaves me blackened [Verse 2] I walk through crowded rooms like a shadow in the light Smiling on the surface while my soul screams in the night They reach out with open hands, eyes full of maybe-true But I’ve been burned too many times—trust feels like déjà vu Every gentle word’s a weapon, every soft look hides a blade I pull away before they hurt me, before the promise starts to fade Yet late at night I remember how alive I used to feel When someone held me close enough to make the numbness real [Chorus] I don’t wanna love somebody, no, I swore I’d never try This heart’s a melted river, too broken to survive But God, I miss that feeling—the warmth that used to glow A touch that turned me molten, even as it laid me low Love lasted for a second, then left me cold and deadened Still I ache for connection… even if it leaves me blackened [Bridge] (Music builds, drums swell, voice raw and rising) Maybe I’m tired of hiding in this frozen cage I made Maybe the liquid in my veins still remembers how to blaze What if the next touch doesn’t destroy but finally sets me free? What if the warmth I’m missing is waiting somewhere safe for me? I’ve died a hundred times inside, but something’s still alive A tiny spark beneath the ice that refuses to say goodbye… [Final Chorus – Hopeful, fuller arrangement with rising vocals] So maybe I’ll love somebody… when the fear begins to fade When this liquid heart remembers it was born to beat again I’ll miss the fleeting fire, but I’ll chase the steady flame A warmth that doesn’t burn me, a touch that calls my name Love may have left me deadened, but death is where new life begins I’m ready for connection… let the healing start within [Outro] (Fading piano, voice soft but warm) Numb… but waking Disconnected… but reaching… I still miss you, your warmth… And this time… I won’t let you destroy me.
