Original lyrics
ENI feel the silence growing in my chest
Like a war I never confessed
Every breath is heavier than the last
I'm disappearing, fading fast
Don't try to find me in the dark
I've already fallen apart
If I stay, I'll only break you too
So I'll vanish before I do
I won't be there when morning calls
No shadow left against your walls
Close your eyes, don't follow through
This is something I must do
There's a weight behind my eyes tonight
Like something's trying to say goodbye
Not loud enough to make a sound
But strong enough to pull me down
I've been learning how to disappear
In crowded rooms, you'd never hear
The slow erosion of a name
That no one ever thought to save
Don't reach for me, I'm not that far
Just buried under who you are
I played the part, I wore the skin
But something hollow settled in
If I stay, I'll fracture slow
In ways you'll never come to know
So let me drift beyond your view
Before I take what's left of you
And if the morning calls my name
Pretend I never stayed the same
It's easier to let me go
Than watch me break beneath it all
I'm not afraid, just tired now
Of fighting things I can't allow
So close your eyes and let this bend
This is where I quietly end
