I know that look
The one that lands before the words
Like you're waiting to be hurt
Before I even move
Your shoulders say more
Than you ever let slip
And I mirror back the fear
Like we're both losing grip
Maybe we taught each other this
One guess at a time
Pain assumed
Like it was always mine
I move you brace
I pause you fade
We orbit what we won't say
Like it's keeping us safe
Every word a trigger
Every pause a blade
You flinch
And I play along
'Til I don't recognize my face
It's not always yelling
Sometimes it's the way
You hold the silence
Like a shield in the fray
I learned to talk soft
And call it kindness
You called it peace
But we both knew what the lie meant
We build a calm
With broken glass
I tiptoe through
So you won't ask
I move you brace
I pause you fade
You learned to expect the break
So I learned how to fake
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
What did we learn… from that silence?
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
What did we learn… from that silence?
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
What did we learn… from that silence?
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
Flinch… flinch… always flinching…
What did we learn… from that silence?
