STUDIO

🎵

The dust has settled
Over the night that seems to go on and on
On and on, on and on.
The thoughts I've wrestled
Of falling off the bridge we built.
It goes on and on and on

I've witnessed empires fall
Without fuel for the fires
I've watched lights burn out
And regretted not being close

Hand me a wilted rose (oh)
I'll hold it to my chest
I'm not afraid anymore (no)
To say I'm not at my best

I've awakened
A side of me I tried to hide
No matter the voices telling me
Not to leave their side.
I can love someone
Even if I don't love myself
And I can be the one
I couldn't be for anyone else

I crave the quiet
But when it answers back
When it answers the call
Will it be what I wanted all along?

🎵

The air feels colder
When the morning leaves its teeth in me
I keep getting older
But the hurt still speaks in infancy

I’ve carried names like anchors
Tied beneath my tongue
Every message I never answered
Still knows where I’m running from

Hand me a wilted rose
I’ll hold it like it's sacred
I’m not afraid anymore
To say I’m unable to take this

I've awakened
A side of me I tried to hide
No matter the voices telling me
Not to leave their side
I can love someone
Even if I don't love myself
And I can be the one
I couldn't be for anyone else

I crave the quiet
But when it answers back
When it answers the call
Will it be what I wanted all along?

It ain't the dying
It's the space we leave behind
We've hurt enough in our lives
I don't want to be more weight on their minds, no

I don't trust surrender
To be merciful to them
'Cause I've been there
I've been the one to watch the quiet take them away

(I've been there)
(I've been there)
(I've been there too many times)

I've awakened
A side of me I tried to hide
No matter the voices telling me
Not to leave their side
I can love someone
Even if I don't love myself
And I can be the one
I couldn't be for anyone else

I crave the quiet
But I know
There’s a kind of calm
That takes more than it gives

I crave the quiet
But when it takes me from you
I know
It's the quiet I fear the most

The quiet I fear the most

I'm still here fighting
I'm still here fighting for life

I'm still here fighting
The quiet I fear the most.
