Beautiful Friction

V5.5

(Intro) (Verse 1 - Male) Staring at the ceiling, trying to breathe through the weight Anxiety is heavy, yeah, it’s a permanent state I built a wall of silence just to keep the peace in But my mind is a prison and I’m looking for a reason To stay grounded, stay calm, keep the shadows at bay Then my thumb starts hovering, drifting your way I know it’s poison, I know it’s a trap But I’m addicted to the lightning and the thunderclap I’m dialing the digits, I’m lighting the fuse I’m trading my healing for more of the blues I wanted the quiet, I wanted the rest But I’m back in the storm, failing the test. (Verse 2 - Female) Here we go again, round three in the dark You say you want peace but you’re looking for a spark You call it a "check-in," I call it a war You’re addicted to the way I leave you wanting more Drama in the driveway, tears in the hall You built a sanctuary just to watch it all fall Seeking out the serenity, finding the pain You’re a master at dancing right back into the rain. (Chorus - Duet) I’m searching for the stillness in a world of noise But I keep picking up the broken toys Stirring up the drama, chasing down the ghost Loving the version of you that hurts the most Oh, the peace is a lie when the chaos is home I’m running from the silence just to feel less alone. (Outro) Just one more text... More drama... More noise... (Silence)
