Verse 1 The clock keeps ticking in the dark Like it’s counting every scar And the walls know all my secrets Even the ones I hide from myself I keep the TV on for noise Just to drown out all the thoughts But somehow in the quiet They only get louder Pre-Chorus Every empty space Still carries your name Chorus There are shadows in the silence Moving through my mind again Every memory feels violent Even though it’s only them And I can’t escape the feeling That I lost more than a friend Now the silence has your voice And it never ends Verse 2 I stopped opening the curtains ‘Cause daylight feels too real And every little thing reminds me Of the way we used to feel I replay conversations Like maybe I’ll find the mistake Somewhere between the goodbye And the heartbreak Pre-Chorus The quiet used to bring me peace Now it just brings me grief Chorus There are shadows in the silence Moving through my mind again Every memory feels violent Even though it’s only them And I can’t escape the feeling That I lost more than a friend Now the silence has your voice And it never ends Post-Chorus Whoa-oh-oh, late at night Whoa-oh-oh, no sleep tonight Bridge Maybe healing isn’t loud Maybe it’s surviving somehow One more night without falling apart One more breath through the dark Final Chorus There are shadows in the silence But I’m learning how to stand Even when the ghosts come calling Even when I barely can And though your voice still echoes Like a wound beneath my skin I’m still here in the silence Breathing in Outro Shadows in the silence Still listening
