[Verse 1] (soft, almost whispered) Dark Angel music I got used to the quiet Yeah, the kind that never speaks Where the nights don’t feel like nightmares ‘Cause you never even dream I was floating through the motions Like a body with no soul Every day just blurred to nothing I was empty, I was whole [Pre-Chorus] Then you touched me like a warning Now I’m breaking at the seams All the feelings I abandoned Coming back to haunt my sleep [Chorus] (emotional, melodic) Now there’s static in my chest And I can’t turn down the noise Every heartbeat feels like chaos Like I lost all my control I was numb for all these years Now the pain is cutting in Yeah it hurts like hell to breathe But I’m learning how to feel again [Verse 2] I forgot what it was like To be shattered by a word Now your silence hits me harder Than anything I’ve heard I was safer in the distance In the cold, in the gray Now the colors feel like violence And I’m begging them to stay [Pre-Chorus] Every tear I never cried Every scar I tried to hide All the weight I buried deep Now it’s dragging me alive [Chorus] (bigger) Now there’s static in my chest And it echoes when I breathe Every nerve is wide awake And it’s tearing into me I was numb for all this time Now I’m drowning in the flood Yeah it hurts to come alive But at least I’m not numb [Bridge] (soft → build) If feeling means I break Then let me fall apart I’d rather feel the pain Than never have a heart If love is just a wound Then let it cut me deep I’m tired of being nothing I’m tired of being asleep [Breakdown] (raw / cracked voice or scream) I WENT YEARS WITHOUT A FEELING NOW IT’S ALL I EVER KNOW EVERY HIGH JUST TURNS TO BLEEDING EVERY TOUCH CUTS TO THE BONE [Final Chorus] (desperate, emotional) Now there’s static in my chest But I’m holding on somehow Even if it kills me slowly I won’t shut it out I was lost inside the numb Now I’m breaking through the pain Yeah it hurts to be alive But I’d do it all again
