Lyrics

The engine's off and all the street lights dim
The tank is empty just like my hope's rim
I'm sitting here, the only witness now
To all the burdens I could not allow
I thought that running meant I wasn't trapped
That constant motion kept my feelings mapped
But in this stillness, the true cost is clear
The thing I ran from is already here
I wrote this final note in fading ink
The quiet consequence of how we think
It isn't bliss or sorrow, just a void
This heavy, endless moment
I can't seem to outrun
I face the empty space where you should be
The truth that finally sets me barely free
The static in the air is all I see
This heavy, endless moment
My zero-sum outcome
I tried to make the solitude my friend
A clean break where the heartache had to end
But every mirror shows the same tired face
Lost somewhere in this empty, quiet space
I thought that building walls would keep me safe
From all the pieces that I couldn't chafe
But in this stillness, the true cost is clear
The consequence of holding back my fear
I wrote this final note in fading ink
The quiet consequence of how we think
It isn't bliss or sorrow, just a void
This heavy, endless moment
I can't seem to outrun
I face the empty space where you should be
The truth that finally sets me barely free
The static in the air is all I see
This heavy, endless moment
My zero-sum outcome
Some silence speaks the loudest of the pain
The fragile hope that struggles to remain
I finally stop the running and the chase
I wrote this final note in fading ink
The quiet consequence of how we think
It isn't bliss or sorrow, just a void
This heavy, endless moment
I can't seem to outrun
I face the future that I have to claim
The heavy burden of your lasting name
This fractured image is forever the same
This heavy, endless moment
My zero-sum outcome
