Coffee’s getting cold on the table You sit across, but you feel so far Words are loading, but we’re not able To say what’s aching in our hearts Silence feels like television static Every breath a quiet panic We don’t fight with fire or rage We just let the hurt stay caged These are quiet wars No bullets, just unspoken scars No screaming, just closing doors Loving you is a battle I can’t ignore We’re bleeding in a silent storm Fighting in these quiet wars You turn your back when the lights go out I count the cracks in the ceiling above We’re in the same room, drowning in doubt Both too tired to fight for love Your heartbeat used to echo mine Now it’s just a distant line We don’t burn the house down with words We just let the silence hurt These are quiet wars No bullets, just unspoken scars No screaming, just closing doors Loving you is a battle I can’t ignore We’re bleeding in a silent storm Fighting in these quiet wars Maybe if we learned to say I’m hurting, but I want you to stay We wouldn’t be drifting away In this war with no grenades These are quiet wars Holding on but losing more No heroes, no metaphors Just two hearts trying to restore If love is worth fighting for Let’s end these quiet wars Stay Before we fade No more quiet wars.
