Lyric

Phone face down

Screen still glows on the table

Group chat scroll

Every word feels unstable

Smiles run thin

On a night made for pretending

I tap out

Right before the ending

All that talk in my head

All that talk that they said

Fades to static in the air

As I breathe and stare

After the noise

I can hear my own voice again

Soft but it cuts right through

Every should, every must, every "prove"

After the noise

I remember my choice again

Quiet like a hidden tune

But it’s burning in the room

After the noise

I finally feel the truth

Street outside

Spills its heat through the window

Laughed too loud

Just to ride on the tempo

Pulled by hands

By the plans I kept delaying

I stay home

Listen to the silence saying

All that push, all that rush

All that crowd, all that crush

Falls like glitter off my skin

As the real kicks in

After the noise

I can hear my own voice again

Soft but it cuts right through

Every should, every must, every "prove"

After the noise

I remember my choice again

Quiet like a hidden tune

But it’s burning in the room

After the noise

I finally feel the truth

I let the unread stay unread (Oh)

Let the pressure leave my chest

Is it wasted, is it wrong

If I rest, if I rest?

In the hush I’m wide awake

Silver lining in the ache

Bittersweet and bright

Holding me tonight

After the noise

I can hear my own voice again

Soft but it cuts right through

Every should, every must, every "prove"

After the noise

I remember my choice again

Quiet like a hidden tune

But it’s burning in the room

After the noise

I finally feel the truth (Yeah)

After the noise

After the noise

I’m still here

I’m still yours, I’m still mine (Oh)
