(Verse 1)
Can't breathe in this quiet,
Not used to the silence.
Hooked on the drama, the raw violence
Of us, a destructive defiance.
This empty space just screams your name,
A gaping void where chaos once held flame.
My days stretch out, a hollow hum,
Where'd the noise go? Why's it numb?
(Pre-Chorus)
So I hit play, spend my day
Rewinding, reliving, come what may.
Good times just flickered, a cruel tease,
I paused, on my knees, begging for ease.
Still searching, a desperate plea,
But the bad times drown me, pushing through me.
A torrent of pain, a relentless tide,
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.
(Chorus)
This suffocating quiet, a heavy shroud,
Drowning out thoughts, screaming too loud.
Ghosts of arguments, a spectral fight,
Haunting me, day and through the night.
Each memory a thorn, a bitter sting,
The broken promises, the cruel words you'd fling.
I used to crave that familiar ache, the twisted bind,
Found bizarre comfort in the chaos left behind.
(Verse 2)
The silence whispers, "You're finally free,"
But the echoes still bind me to what used to be.
A part of me clings to the hurt, the known,
Afraid of this journey, stepping out alone.
But even the quiet can start to reveal,
A strength I forgot, a way to truly feel.
(Pre-Chorus)
So I hit play, spend my day
Rewinding, reliving, come what may.
Good times just flickered, a cruel tease,
I paused, on my knees, begging for ease.
Still searching, a desperate plea,
But the bad times drown me, pushing through me.
A torrent of pain, a relentless tide,
I don't want to run, I don't want to hide.
(Chorus)
This suffocating quiet, a heavy shroud,
Drowning out thoughts, screaming too loud.
Ghosts of arguments, a spectral fight,
Haunting me, day and through the night.
Each memory a thorn, a bitter sting,
The broken promises, the cruel words you'd fling.
I used to crave that familiar ache, the twisted bind,
Found bizarre comfort in the chaos left behind.
(Bridge)
With every breath, every single second spent,
Dragging me down to this living torment.
But the anger burns, a purifying fire,
Fueling my escape from this toxic mire.
Yeah, the anger burns, a purifying fire...
I'm fueling my escape, higher and higher!
(Chorus)
NO MORE REWINDING, I'LL STOP THE PLAY!
NO MORE RELIVING, come what may!
Good times so few, I'll leave them behind,
No longer struggling, a new peace I'll find.
No longer searching for what wasn't real,
The bad times too many, now I start to heal!
No pain, no tide, I'll find my own solace, I no longer need to hide!
(Outro)
The truth breaks through, bitter and clear, Reclaiming my strength, shaking off the fear.
The silence now? A promise, not a dread, A wide-open space for what's next instead.
I'll rise strong and new,
Finally free, forever done with you. Everyone was right... you weren't worth the fight
