[Verse 1] I carved a mark in the bench by the tracks Watched the trains roll by with no turning back We were kids with nothing but time Now I trace those cracks like they’re still mine [Pre-Chorus] Told myself to move on But moving don’t mean that the past is gone [Chorus] This is for the days I can’t erase For the fights, the falls, the time I misplaced I still hear the noise when the silence hits Not your voice — just echoes that never quit Remembrance ain’t peace — but I carry it like a fist [Verse 2] We threw rocks at signs and laughed at pain Spray-paint dreams that washed in the rain You disappeared, just dust and sound But your shadow’s still burned into this town [Pre-Chorus] The world got loud, I stayed quiet Still holding out on a one-man riot [Chorus] This is for the days I can’t erase For the fights, the falls, the time I misplaced I still hear the noise when the silence hits Not your voice — just echoes that never quit Remembrance ain’t peace — but I carry it like a fist [Bridge – Spoken/Sung] I kept the jacket with holes in the sleeve Not for you — for what I still believe Some stories don’t end — they just stall Mid-verse. Mid-breath. Mid-fall. [Final Chorus] This is for the days I can’t erase For the kid I was — for the look on my face I still hear the noise when the silence hits Not regret — just a fire that never quits Remembrance ain’t peace — but it’s better than bullshit
