Lyrics

You were right beside me
But I never felt so far
Like a ghost inside the same room
Like a shadow in the dark

Every word you never gave me
Still echoes in my head
And the quiet between us
Said more than what you said

I could feel you disappearing
Before you even left

And it hurts worse than silence
When you’re here but not with me
When your eyes look right through mine
Like I’m something you don’t see
It hurts worse than silence
Like a wound that never heals
I could’ve survived the distance
But not the way this feels

You kept breathing next to me
While everything was dying slow
Like we were holding onto ashes
Of a fire we let go

I kept reaching through the static
For the version that I knew
But the colder that you got
The more I disappeared in you

I could feel the end approaching
Before we let it break

And it hurts worse than silence
When you’re here but not with me
When your eyes look right through mine
Like I’m something you don’t see
It hurts worse than silence
Like a wound that never heals
I could’ve survived the distance
But not the way this feels

If you were gonna leave me
You should’ve just let me know
Instead of killing us slowly
And calling it control

I would’ve survived the ending
But not the way you let me go

And it hurts worse than silence
When you’re here but not with me
When your heart is still beside me
But your soul is out of reach
It hurts worse than silence
Like a wound beneath my skin
I could’ve survived the darkness
But not the emptiness within

Worse than silence
Worse than silence
