The room feels softer than before
Nothing’s broken on the floor
But the quiet cuts too deep
Like it knows what I won’t speak
You look peaceful, almost fine
While I’m losing track of mine
Every smile you pretend
Pulls me closer to the end
It’s a calm that hurts
More than screaming ever could
Everything is quiet now
But it doesn’t feel that good
No tears fall, no words burst
Still my heart is misunderstood
Yeah, it’s a calm that hurts
When I’m trying to be good
We talk like nothing’s wrong
Keep the night politely long
Every laugh is carefully placed
So no one sees the ache
If this peace is how we break
Let it break without mistakes
I don’t need a louder truth
Just don’t let me lose you
It’s a calm that hurts
More than screaming ever could
Everything is quiet now
But it doesn’t feel that good
No tears fall, no words burst
Still my heart is misunderstood
Yeah, it’s a calm that hurts
When I’m trying to be good
No fights left to survive
Just silence keeping us alive
If love is learning how to wait
This feels like it’s too late
It’s a calm that hurts
Like a smile I can’t escape
Every moment feels rehearsed
In this love we couldn’t save
No tears fall, no words burst
Still I wish you understood
Yeah, it’s a calm that hurts
More than anger ever could
So quiet…
It hurts
