Verse 1:
If this is what it takes to feel
Then I’ll let the blade reveal
What words can’t fix, what time won’t mend
One more cut—where does it end?
Tears fall quiet, but they don’t change
The world still turns, cold and deranged
I trace the scars like constellations
A private map of resignation
Chorus:
Love is absent, nowhere near
No warmth survives inside this fear
Life demands, but gives no rest
So I bleed the silence from my chest
Hatred wraps me, edge to skin
And I forget what light has been
Verse 2:
Addicted to the edge of pain
A moment’s peace inside the strain
Beneath this hate, I dream of grace
But never find the resting place
Hope flickers like a dying flame
Each cut a cry, each wound the same
This world never handed me peace
Just more reasons to not believe
Chorus:
Love is absent, nowhere near
No warmth survives inside this fear
Life demands, but gives no rest
So I bleed the silence from my chest
Hatred wraps me, edge to skin
And I forget what light has been
Bridge:
Never mind the stakes, or the shame
Just carve away what bears my name
One more slice, one less lie
Closer now to paradise
Outro:
Hate surrounds me, thick and deep
I breathe it in, I dare not weep
Never had a life without bleeding
Never knew love, only the leaving
So say it plain, and let it sink
Love is absent. And I can’t think.
