Atmospheric Alternative Metal/ Post-Hardcore/ Dark Alternative Rock

Verse 1
You kept dead flowers inside the books,
Between the pages full of pain.
I noticed you've been staring at walls
And whispering into the rain.

The smell of love became too strong,
It was intense and it was true.
You told me that it wasn't wrong
And nothing else was left to do.

Pre-Chorus
We learned to talk
Without touching the truth.

Chorus
This love became a silent illness,
It left our voices paralyzed.
The darkness was the only witness
Of pulling out loaded guns.

No fights, no screams,
No shattered plates.
Just two sad hearts
Destroying themselves.

Verse 2
You stopped wearing white clothes.
I lost my sleep on quiet nights.
We loved and clung onto our vows
To stay together while we last.

One day you laughed without a reason.
I almost cried because of it.
But none of us broke the silence,
The fear consumed me bit by bit.


Pre-Chorus
Some things break
Without making a sound.

Chorus
This love became a silent illness,
It left our voices paralyzed.
The darkness was the only witness
Of pulling out loaded guns.

No fights, no screams,
No shattered plates.
Just two sad hearts
Destroying themselves.

Bridge
Morning came too pale and slow.
The wind screamed somewhere far away.
I held your hand and it was cold.
And outside, snow continued falling down
As if nothing had happened.

Final Chorus
And maybe our love was never a fire,
And maybe it was just the slowest flood.
We held onto broken desire
While slowly learning how to drown.

The neighbours later spoke in whispers.
The doctors came to see the hollow.
But by then we were already somewhere
Together forever and no one could follow.
