Silence

[Chorus: Kyra]
Well, I love the silence
The way it speaks to me
When there's no silver lining, yeah
The way it reaches me
I love the silence

[Verse 1: Joshua Luke Smith]
Been drinking denial
Running from dragons that live in my mind
Searching for answers that no man can find
Inside of himself
I'll tell you I'm fine
'Cause anything else will lead me straight back to the scene of the crime
Well, I kill the truth by living a lie
Bury my feelings to reach to the sky
I thought that you couldn't have both
I traded [?], survival distracting, and [?] would at least have noise I could drown out my voice

[Pre-Chorus: Joshua Luke Smith]
And I don't know when the last time was I told someone how I really felt (Mm, mm, mm)
And I don't know when the last time I was really by myself (Mm, mm, mm)
I don't know when the last time was I told someone how I really felt (Mm, mm, mm)
And I don't know when the last time I was really by myself (Mm, mm, mm)

[Chorus: Kyra]
Well, I love the silence
The way it speaks to me
When there's no silver lining, yeah
The way it reaches me
I love the silence

[Verse 2: Joshua Luke Smith, Kyra]
All these words feel risky
Burning my throat like the aged-whisky I'm drinking
Reframin' the pain I'm feelin'
Traded my emotions for thinking like a philosopher
Now I'm lost and forgot my name in the moniker
I thought being lonely was being alone
Till I felt distant within my own soul (Ah-ah-ah-ah)
And realise people don't change how you feel
When you don't feel refuge within your own home
Then you gotta face what [?] won't heal

[Pre-Chorus: Joshua Luke Smith, Kyra]
And I don't know when the last time was I told someone that I needed help (I don't know when the last time was I needed help, mm, mm, mm)
And I don't know when the last time was I could really be myself (Mm, mm, mm)
And I don't know when the last time was I told someone that I needed help (Ooh-ooh, mm, mm, mm)
And I don't know when the last time was I could really be myself (Mm, mm, mm)

[Chorus: Kyra]
Well, I love the silence
The way it speaks to me
When there's no silver lining, yeah
The way it reaches me

[Bridge: Kyra]
Tried to slow down, be on my own now, face what I can't escape
Stay in the deep end, searching for meaning, gotta get out my way
Chasin' the freedom, facing' these demons, takin' up too much space
So I'll sit here and wait

[Chorus: Kyra]
I love the silence, yeah
The way it speaks to me
When there's no silver linings, yeah
It reaches me
I love the silence, mm
The way it reaches me
Ooh, I love the silence
Oh, ooh, yeah
Mm-mm-mm
