[Verse 1] No matter how I phrase it It all sounds sugar‑coated in the end Twist it, break it, tear it down It still comes out too clean to pretend Even stripped of every filter This purity feels like a lie Some people I can’t ever save Some words will never reach the sky [Pre‑Chorus] No matter how I try It all sounds pretty when it shouldn’t (when it shouldn’t) [Chorus] It’s not that nothing matters I just can’t find meaning in the noise Value slips right through my hands And I’m fading with my own voice (my own voice) Ask me once or a thousand times Just… answer me [Verse 2] Everything I say feels fiction Even when I swear it’s real Twist it, break it, tear it down The truth still loses all its feel Even stripped of every filter This purity is not my art There are walls I’ll never pass And riddles I can’t pull apart [Pre‑Chorus] No matter how I try It all sounds false when I mean it (when I mean it) [Chorus 2] It’s not that nothing matters I just can’t find meaning in the noise Value slips right through my hands And I’m fading with my own voice (my own voice) Ask me once or a thousand times Just… scream for me [Bridge] Everything I loved Has bled its colors dry This empty room I’ll paint it red tonight And frame it all In a cage of black [Chorus 3] It’s not that nothing matters I just can’t find meaning in the noise Value slips right through my hands And I’m fading with my own voice (my own voice) Ask me once or a thousand times Just… don’t look at me
