[Verse 1] We learned to quiet everything, Cut our edges, dull the sting, Keep it soft, keep it small— Like silence made it easier to fall. We buried parts we couldn’t show, Twisted truth to something low, Played along, kept it contained— Still it never dulled the strain. [Pre-Chorus] There’s something they can’t erase, A pressure they can’t displace… No matter how we bend. [Chorus] We’re too much for it—they turn away, Too loud, too sharp for what they made, Too alive to stay contained— Every line they drew just breaks. So let it crack, let it split, We won’t shrink to fit their script, If they push, we push the same— We don’t disappear—we take up space. [Verse 2] We know the look, we know the shift, That quiet edge beneath the lips, Measured tone, controlled disdain— Like we’re something to contain. Every time we held it back, It only built beneath the cracks, Every second forced to stall Just made it harder not to call. [Pre-Chorus] There’s something they can’t erase, A pressure they can’t displace… No matter how we bend. [Chorus] We’re too much for it—they turn away, Too loud, too sharp for what they made, Too alive to stay contained— Every line they drew just breaks. So let it crack, let it split, We won’t shrink to fit their script, If they push, we push the same— We don’t disappear—we take up space. [Bridge] Let them talk, let it burn, We’ve got nothing left to learn, Every line they try to draw Just gives us something to ignore. [Final] We’re too much for it—they turn away, Too loud, too sharp for what they made, Too alive to stay contained— Every line they drew just breaks. So let it crack, let it split, We won’t shrink to fit their script, If they push, we push the same— We don’t disappear—we take up space. [Outro] Not fading… Not bending. Still here.
