[Verse 1]
I’m on the road for the holidays
But I don’t know how to open the windows
Why do walls contain your presence
Why do books contain chapters
They say love lasts three years
And I never really knew how to count
What is this race without a winner
I didn’t think I was only participating
I still wanted to tell you hello
I still wanted to dream your nights
I never thought the “forever”
Could end on a Monday
And it’s just a slap, it’s just a switch
I’ll trust the direction of the wind
But right now, it’s not just my eyes that sting
I’m gonna have a small setback

[Chorus]
Who has awakened silence
I hadn't heard it since forever
Who has lacked awareness
I just got hit with a heavy weight
Life without you is the worst noise
The type that wakes me up at night
Like an alarm at 4:30am
I swear, the absence is painful
I swear, the absence is painful
[Verse 2]
I had rarely felt alive
But now it’s clear, there’s no doubt
I had never had an accident
I got wrecked on the road
But I think man’s worst enemy
Is just time that shatters us
I took a brick to the sternum
It pinches the heart, fucking hell
What is this race without a winner
I didn’t want to be only participating
I dived into it with my two arms in front
Without trying to figure out how to swim
I took it without safety measures
I was on the road to holidays
I didn’t expect to fork out that much
Fuck, it’s so hard without you all the time
I still wanted to tell you hello
I still wanted to dream your nights
I never thought the “forever”
Could end on a Monday
And it’s just a slap, it’s just a switch
I’ll trust the direction of the wind
But right now, it’s not just my eyes that sting
I’m gonna have a small setback
[Chorus]
Who has awakened silence
I hadn't heard it since forever
Who has lacked awareness
I just got hit with a heavy weight
Life without you is the worst noise
The type that wakes me up at night
Like an alarm at 4:30am
I swear, the absence is painful
Who has awakened silence
I hadn't heard it since forever
Who has lacked awareness
I just got hit with a heavy weight
Life without you is the worst noise
The type that wakes me up at night
Like an alarm at 4:30am
I swear, the absence is painful
I swear, the absence is painful
